Why I’m Doing This | NaPodPoMo | Kagok Talk Ep1 by @ekads on 3Speak, from Kagok Talk Podcast
I just came across something interesting on 3speak: NaPodPoMo by @epodcaster It’s a podcasting challenge—30 episodes over 30 days throughout November. The format is flexible; you could release one episode a day, drop seven all at once over the weekend, or even post all 30 by the end of the period. I’ve realized that my English-speaking skills are still quite weak, which is why I decided to jump straight into this challenge. I know my pronunciation is often off—as you can hear in this recording, my delivery sounds very stiff while reading from the script I prepared. I hope that by practising this way, I’ll become more fluent in English—especially when speaking in public or communicating directly with others. I’ve named this podcast "Kagok Talk." In Indonesian, kagok refers to that awkward, stiff, or uncomfortable feeling one might experience in certain situations or when around specific people. Through this podcast, I want to shed that sense of kagok—that awkwardness—when speaking English with others. Would you like to join me?
