Peter, Eric, and Joe discuss the good time we had at the National Stuttering Association's 2008 annual conference. We talk about traveling and ordering food as people who stutter and we revisit the topic of breathing. Click the video below to catch a sneak peak of an upcoming podcast (we interviewed Sarah and Stephanie at the NSA's 2008 annual conference).

We have received this second podcast spoken in Hindy from Satyendra Kumar Srivastava in India. This podcast contains four Indian people who stutter who are pictured below (Pawan and Sachin are regular members of the Samagra Speech Group and Arvind and Jagdish visit the group from a nearby village).

Sachin and friends discuss:

The nature of stuttering (inner thoughts and perceptions during moments of difficulty)
Their thoughts on other people's perceptions of and reactions to stuttering.
What happens during interviews, and
Advice to young people who are facing interviews in the near future.

We want to remind our listeners about the FRIENDS 2008 Annual Convention being held in New Orleans, Louisiana, July 34-36, 2008. We are excited to introduce the StutterTalk store where you can find t-shirts, mugs, tote-bags, calendars and more to advertise stuttering!

Thanks to Yo La Tengo, The Hold Steady, and The National and for supplying their musical goodness to StutterTalk. We also include some fine music from Eric's bands Rocketship Park and Higgins.
