One of our listeners, a student at Yang Ming University invited Henry to be a judge in the Toastmaster English Speech Competition. There, we met Linda who was one of the other judges and asked her to be in our show.

Linda has been in Taiwan for 25 years now, volunteering for many non-profit organizations. Currently, she works in The Garden of Hope Foundation which is working to end sexual abuse and domestic violence. We did the interview in her house, the same place that housed the many abused girls she helped to rescue.

We pay our respects to Linda for her devotion to Taiwan.

Henry因為主持What's up in Taiwan，受到節目的聽眾、陽明大學學生Tom的邀請，擔任Toastmaster英語演講比賽的評審，當天我們認識了也是評審之一的Linda，經過邀約，她答應接受我們的訪問。

Linda來台已經25年，從事過各種社會服務工作，目前在勵馨社會福利事業基金會擔任義工，訪問在她家裡進行，同時也是她收容不幸少女的中途之家。

我們向Linda對台灣的奉獻致敬。

CNR and Shout Out

For the members of Forumosa.com, here is your hero!
Sean has given us so much important information for animal care that it was quite impossible to fit them all into the show, we decided to separate them into different audio files, they are very educational and worth listening to. If you are thinking about owning a pet and understanding the necessary precautions, or perhaps you would like to know more about the CNR method that Sean spoke of “Catch-Neuter-Return”. Also, here are some links to help you get more involved with this great cause.

透過第15集來賓Stuart Morrow的介紹，我們訪問了Forumosa網站裡的英雄人物Sean McCormack。
訪問當天Sean幾乎所有的精神都圍繞在動物保護的話題上，鮮少談到那他自己，可以感受到他對這個議題的關心。我們請他為台灣的動物福利打分數，滿分十分，Sean只給了兩、三分；並且若非一些民間人士的努力（如愛心媽媽、不知名的計程車司機...等等），台灣可能要抱鴨蛋！關心動物保護的聽眾千萬不要錯過這個訪問。由於整個錄音長達30分鐘，我還是希望各位聽眾每次收聽這個節目不要花太長的時間，所以將部份內容剪成另外的檔案，將陸續貼上來。

We have wanted to do a show about the National Palace Museum for a long time, and we were fortunate enough to meet the brilliant Mrs. Joanne Huskey. She is a volunteer docent at the museum and lived in numerous countries due to her husband’s work in Foreign Services. At the end of the interview, Mrs. Huskey wanted to know why we are doing this show; she actually said it for us during her interview by calling Taiwan an “unknown treasure”, not to be confused with any other Chinese-based countries in the world.

我們最想做關於故宮博物院的介紹，經過聯繫，終於訪問到一位在故宮擔任英語導覽的外籍志工：Joanne Huskey。她是外交官的妻子，希望在駐台期間能多了解中國文化，便報名參加了英語導覽的課程，訪問前我們想請她示範一小段導覽，當作節目的開場，沒想到Joanne帶我們參觀了一個多小時的文物，我們已經做了全程錄音，希望在最短的時間內，可以取得相關文物的照片，做一個完整的故宮導覽Podcast發佈。

這次的訪問我個人很滿意，因為受訪者說出了我們製作這個節目的動機與目的，台灣是一個"unknown treasure"。在此要特別感謝故宮博物院林曼麗院長，以及幫我們聯繫的張小姐。
