Video interview with Elena Lagadinova from December 2014
This morning I was looking through some old external hard drives and I found about an hour of video footage from various interviews I conducted with Elena Lagadinova in December 2014. For a long time I have been meaning to subtitle these and post them online, but I only know how to use iMovie and it is tedious work for which I’ve never been able to find the time. I did do one clip with subtitles, which is linked here.

Die Professorin Kristen R. Ghodsee erregte im vergangenen Jahr Aufsehen mit einem neuen Buch.

Wir haben uns mit ihr unterhalten.

A Fun Conversation with Illana Novick at TruthDig
Seeing an interview in print is always a bit of a surprise. You speak on the phone with someone for an hour or so, and you never know what they are going to pull out to include in the final interview. I am very pleased with this conversation, although “these technological studies“ was mis-transcribed. It should have been “these sexological studies.”

Thanks to Sean Illing at Vox.com
Although we talked for a whole hour on the phone, Sean Illing did an amazing job of condensing our conversation into something short and readable. He was an excellent interlocutor.
