Welcome back! For the first show of season 3, Greg
introduces you to the new co-host of the Bangkok Podcast, Ed "The
Truth" Knuth.


Together they have a combined 35 years in the Big Mango, so
they reminisce a bit about what the city was like when they first
got here, how it compares to now, and what they think the city
will look like in 10 or 20 years. Purely based on conjecture, of
course, they have no real experience with this, but since when
has making uneducated predictions been a bad idea? One of the
things Greg and Ed discuss is the future of Bangkok's train
network - click here to see a map that
Greg made that shows what Bangkok will (hopefully) look like in
10 or so years.


We also thank Patreon supporter Mike Herrin, who hides his
steamy real life Bangkok adventures behind a veil of boring
office work.


And don't worry about losing one of the favorite parts of
the show - Greg surprises Ed with a Love, Loathe, or Leave that
has to do with motorbike taxi drivers who might be trying to
kidnap you...or just simply random dudes trying to make a few
extra baht.


As always, the podcast will continue to be
100% funded by listeners just like you who get
early access, bonus shows, and special swag. And we'll keep
our Facebook,
Twitter, and LINE
 accounts active so you can send us comments,
questions, or whatever you want to share.
