I watched it from Germany too and also found it interesting, even though a bit short.
Richard's words reminds me of Bruce Lee's famous quote: "If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I watched it from the U.S. and thought it was quite good. I also agree that I would like to have seen more of the discussion.

I think there is more than one installment because Steve Kaufmann has published a preview of Part Two on his youtube channel.
I get so jealous of all these people that can dedicate so much time to studying (especially the ones who also have a wife or girlfriend in their life). By the time I finish work and other responsibilities, there is little time left or I am too exhausted. This is the main reason I have not been able to move any of my "studying" languages into the "speaks" section for many years. I've got all the resources, just no time.

Tim and I realised that there would be little chance of much of what we filmed to be used in the show. There
are only so many minutes in a 15 minute programme, right? ;p So we made some clips ourselves afterwards, which we will now be able to release. We had to sit on them until the show aired, so that the first placed we'd be seen together would be on 16x9. I will start checking out the material on my SD card and pop up some things on my YouTube channel soon. I will put links on my blog, Facebook page and Twitter. Of course, I will also pop in a link or two here too for anyone interested in seeing some more footage of our conversations together. It was a really fun experience being part of the show and I am grateful for the opportunity to appear on it. I met some great people, including some other people featured in the show. I just want to take this opportunity also to thank all the language learners out there with whom I interract on this forum, my social media pages, in person and on Skype for the amazing support and encouragement I have received. I really appreciate it! :) 15 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Thank you, Richard, for your contributions here and elsewhere. Your combination of tremendous skill and dedication with encouragement toward other language learners is an inspiration to me and many others. I look forward to seeing the additional footage. :-)

I'd like to thank you for all the things you do for the language learning community. And I can't wait to see the footage you are talking about. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

I was able to watch it here in the Czech Republic with no problems. I enjoyed it; it was nice to seem some people talk about it with expressions and body language, rather than just read about it all the time. Rather tempted me to get on those videos I've been planning on making, too! :-)
