I was on leave so I didn't take part in Pods and Blogs this week except in taped form. President Bush spoke in our time so the show was shorter than planned. A big thanks to all concerned, those who ended up on-air and those who (because of the shorter segment) didn't

We started with Iraqi blogger 24stepstoliberty who gave his reaction to Bush' speech.
Mike Fay gave us some thoughts from a serving soldier's perspective.
Zahed of Altmuslim.com sent us a lovely piece of audio about how he first learned about 9/11 on holiday in Cuba. Unfortunately our audio playout system and the mp3 format he sent seemed to disagree and we lost part of the interview. But you can hear the whole thing at the altmuslim podcast
Podcasting Pilot Joe D'eon sent us a very nice personal reflection.
Rachel North who survived the 7/7 bombings added some thoughts on media coverage of anniversaries of terror attacks and how blogging has helped her come to terms with events.
Catholic Deacon and podcaster Chris Decker from New Orleans sent us a perspective from that city.

A big, big thanks are also due to Saba, Abhi, Evelyn, Ahmed and Patrick all of whom offered to help out with the programme. Please visit their blogs where you can read their thoughts and reflections.
