Entrepreneur and TV Host Dan Fraser on Filming, Language, and Absorbing Thai Culture [Season 4, Episode 38]

Greg interviews Renaissance-Expat Extraordinaire Dan
Fraser, an old friend of both Greg and Ed and a former guest of
the podcast in season 1. As both the star of a Thai TV show
called 'Long Ruk Yim' and the owner
of Smiling Albino, a high-end adventure
travel company, Dan is afforded some really unique opportunities
for understanding Thai culture, and seeing things from the
inside.


Among the topics discussed in this episode - part 1 of a
two-part show - Dan discusses the difficulties involved in
filming a television show where he must explain his adventures in
Thailand, in Thai to a Thai audience, and the logistics of
putting a weekly show together while running a mid-size company
with a few dozen staff. He also goes into detail on some of the
incredibly awkward situations that he often finds himself in
while filming, and how he uses them as tools to better understand
Thai culture.


Suffice it to say, if Greg and Ed have had 'interesting'
lives in Thailand, Dan has had something that's hyper-super-mega
interesting. Approximately.
