Yesterday, I was contacted by my friend Zalan in Victoria. He informed me that ABC radio were looking for a fruitarian to interview live, yesterday afternoon.
He gave me a no. to ring if I was up for it, which I decided I was, so I contacted the radio station, and at 16:20, they rang me back for a short 7 or 8 minute interview with Richard Glover..
It was short and sweet, and needless to say, I only got to say a fraction of what needs to be said, but it all went pretty smoothly, and despite perhaps stumbling a couple of times, I think I managed to get the idea across in a reasonably level-headed enough manner, to hopefully make some people think..
If you want to listen to the interview, the ABC website has made it available for anyone to play or even download.
Just click on the image below, taken directly from the Australian ABC website:
I will publish another Interview with myself at a later date.. I am busy working on a couple of other new fruitarian interviews first..
peace,
Mango.

Great Interview Mango.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed it, you did a good job.
Thanks Anne,
ReplyDeletePlaying through it again, I realise there's a couple of things I could/would have said differently if I'd had more time to think, but overall, I'm pretty pleased with how it went too..
By the way, we read your interview in the Good Weekend.. Good stuff, I noticed someone blogged about it after: blog about fruitarian interview.
Peace, and a hug for Cappi!

ReplyDeleteThe host was reasonable and considerate.
I think you planted some seeds for thought thru the radio waves.

Hey Mango,
ReplyDeleteI just heard your interview. I love how you speak. Very clear and concise and you are a quick thinker. The interviewer seemed to focus on silly specifics and you were able to reply back with well thought educational inspiring information. I suggest you be speaking to the masses asap if that interests you. Also, that you are a barefoot for so many years gets me sooooo excited as I love this way and plan to live where it is acceptable to be barefoot and shirtless 24/7...any suggestions on where in AU? I can do this in Asia away from cities but even in villages I get the constant question of why no flip flops.
I hope to be interviewed by you soon....i had a some more learning to do on this fruitarian path apperently, because I did eat some cooked foods after 6months of successful fruitarian streak....I will come around asap....I am in Penang, Malaysia eating durian again which is the best transitional food in the world I believe because I would rather eat this than any cooked food....heading to Chanthiburi to enjoy some raw company from Harley and Freelea soon.
peace and love to you and Kveta!!
