# Map-py Talk Show Proposal

We have a weekly WeeklyOSM period, and Podcast series GeoMob by OpenCage. But the latter one is more tend to Western interviewees due to its locaation. Maybe we can have Asia and Pacific focus media, interviewing key figures in the area, indroducing the projects they are involved and focused on.

previously raise the issue on Map-py Wednesday 1/15: https://hackmd.io/mIuJX9-UQ5Sl25DX67F57A?both#/

Someone might know the OSM podcast Geomob. Eventhough it is possible to self-nominate yourself to be on Geomob, a media directly plan by OSM Asia folks, talking about Asia area interesting projects or exchange view of OSM ecosystem might be necessary.
