佈道大會當天，有很多人跑來跟我們說有很想做的PODCAST主題，但是怕東西太冷門大家不想聽，或是覺得講話不夠有趣(或是笑聲不夠魔性)。當時現場QA時沒有回答這個問題，覺得很懊悔。在這邊跟大家分享。 大部分的人一定不知道，其實我跟KEN四年前就開始做網路節目了。那時候直播根本才剛開始沒啥人做，我們就一股腦的做了一整季的訪談節目。那時候看的人只有親友，收到的回饋大部分都是：口條差、有點乾、節奏不好、想轉台、看不完。那些黑歷史我們到現在都不敢看。 我們蹲了四年。這段期間嘗試了各種方式：直播、短片、英文教學、街訪、廣播、Podcast，什麼都嘗試。我們還選了一個根本無敵爆冷門的主題：「國際新聞」，那時候連電視台都幾乎放棄做國際新聞了，我們倆個沒沒無聞的素人還幻想著我們能夠發揮一點影響力，讓大家來關心這個世界。粉絲團取個跟狗有關的名字，還不就是想騙讚跟點閱率。 我只是想說，四年前，我們一點也不有趣，我們講話結巴(現在也是)，錄影的時候我們根本顏面神經失調，緊繃到完全笑不出來。每個月去台中全國廣播錄音的時候還要拿著一張稿子在那邊念，還常常不知所云(都靠小潘 @run_0305 跟寶拉 @wan715 救援)。我們其實跟所有現在想做Podcast節目的人，沒什麼不一樣。差別只在於我們有一股莫名的熱忱與堅持，我們很幸運地做到現在。我們也很幸運，有這麼多人的支持。 一起加油，讓我們的聲音被世界聽見。 #華語最自由 #百靈果佈道大會 #podcastlife #livepodcast #我是凱莉
