This podcast focuses on interviews with performing and visual artists, as well as on thought-provoking and engaging discussions about the cultural habits, practices, and values that shape who we are. The older episodes center more around the connections between language and culture, and examine the cultural aspects of mono- and multiculturalism, third-culture kid identity, and the challenges of living and working across different parts of the world.
Most of the episodes are in English, but I bring you occasional interviews in German, French, Spanish, and Hungarian.

This episode is basically a lesson in jazz, in dialogue with an amazing musician, Clint Ashlock, the artistic director of the Kansas City Jazz Orchestra. Clint is also a trumpeter and a composer and has been featured as a solo artist all over the world. The episode discusses the origins of jazz, how it compares to swing or the blues, goes into New Orleans Jazz vs. Kansas City Jazz, and delves into some of the socio-cultural aspects of jazz. Clint Ashlock exudes music even when he’s speaking. His verbal imitation of different beats and styles is incredibly informative and entertaining. And, you will find musical treats from the Kansas City Jazz Orchestra both within this podcast episode and on our website cultureum.com.
