The AIR program – Lunch Box – today was more of a frustrating interview than a serious conversation. I have started feeling that radios, televisions or newspapers (mainstream media in general) is more worried about filling the slot or the space and is not much concerned about the cause.
Today I barely had less than 20 minutes (if I cut down the songs and the words of the RJ) to talk about a 92 day trip. The talk was interrupted by songs every 3-4 minutes. There was not much of a coherence in my talk. After going through this blunder of talking about a serious issue like water management in the midst of some silly Kannada songs, I don’t know whether I should ever accept such requests to participate in a radio/television chat shows. May be I will stick to my plan of going to my previous companies and talking to my colleagues about the trip than wasting my time on ventures like these – if you ever have to tell stories, complete them!
