Be part of the "10Y local guides" podcast episode!

As part of the year-long celebrations for the 10th anniversary of the local guides program, I will release a podcast episode of the LetsGuide Podcast based on the responses YOU submit to a couple of questions related to the local guides program.

All you need to do is record one or two audio clip(s) to answer one or two of the following questions:

Question 1
What has been your most rewarding moment or experience as a local guide?

Question 2
What has been your most unpleasant moment or experience as a local guide?

Question 3
In the local guides program, numbers play an important role (levels, points, views, etc). Which number are you most proud of?

Question 4
Both on Google Maps and on Local Guides Connect badges play an important role. If you could add a new type of badge, what would it be?

Question 5
The local guides program not only highly depends on all the local guides participating in it, but also on a dedicated Google team. If you could ask them 1 question, what would that be?

To make sure all submissions can be used, please answer only 1 or 2 question(s) and keep the clips under 60 seconds. In case you answer 2 questions, please submit 2 separate clips. At the start of the clip (only 1 of them if you submit 2) you can mention your name, level and country.

Any recording device will do, no professional recording equipment is needed - please do pay attention to background noise, so try recording in a quiet environment.

You can upload the clips you record to this folder

Deadline: July, 20th

Yes, another podcast episode is in the making. Wonderful.

I will think about your questions and try to come up with a good answer. I’m intrigued by question 5.

Knowing you a bit, the tricky thing for you about question 5 would be to narrow it down to just 1 question @MortenCopenhagen :rofl:

There is no extra prize for the first submitter @PennyChristie (although that could bring an extra shout out during the episode :thinking:), but I look forward to hearing (from) you.
