  • LWLT E05 - The running era continues
    Jun 15 2025

    Welcome to the Long Walks, Longer Talks Podcast, where we talk about a multitude of topics while we go on long walks, featuring Karl, Ely or (“Val”) and Galileo (or “G”)!


    On this episode, we take a hike up the Lisnabreeny National Trust Cregagh Glen. While we make our way up dark wooded paths, trudging on muddy trails and listening to the sound of streams and waterfalls, your hosts dive deeper into our running era, the Belfast Marathon Relay experience, background, motivations and goals for the future.


    This was recorded on a Thursday evening hike all the way up to the hilltop at Lisnabreeny Rath and back down to Cregagh.

  • LWLT E04 - Long runs, longer rants - tungkol sa weather, running struggles, toxic social media, atbp
    Apr 18 2025

    Welcome to the Long Walks, Longer Talks Podcast, where we talk about a multitude of topics while we go on long walks, featuring Karl, Ely (or "Val") and Galileo (or "G")!


    ...except on this episode, we are not on a long walk, because your humble hosts have entered our "running era"! This episode is the first (of potentially many more) long run, longer rants edition, where we go on a long run at an easy, conversational pace.


    On this episode, we catch up on what we've been up to since our last episode, while we rant about the weather, struggles with running, toxic social media culture, and a few random topics that we picked up while on our run.


    This was recorded on a Saturday morning easy run in the East Belfast area, covering a total of 11 km along Templemore Avenue, Cregagh Road, Castlereagh Road, Beersbridge Road and Upper Newtownards Road in the Stormont area.

    Welcome to the Long Walks, Longer Talks Podcast, where we talk about a multitude of topics while we go on long walks, featuring Karl (or "K"), Ely (or "Val") and Galileo (or "G")!


    On our second episode, we are joined by three special guests ("R", "J" and "L") on our walk to Lock Keeper's Inn. We talk about a few key things related to our move abroad: what were our considerations in making the decision, what did we have to change after moving, and what were our realisations after having lived and worked abroad for some time.

  • LWLT E01 - Nagbabago nga ba pag nakapag abroad
    Sep 2 2024

    Welcome to the Long Walks, Longer Talks Podcast, where we talk about a multitude of topics while we go on long walks, featuring Karl, Ely (or "Val") and Galileo (or "G")!


    On our very first episode, we reflect on how OFWs (and people working away from their home towns in general) sometimes are told "Nagbago ka na" by their old friends when they meet again after some time away. We also cover the topic of maintaining friendships and the social media trend of "Pinoy baiting".


    This was recorded on a Saturday morning walk from Belfast to Lisburn, along the Lagan Towpath, in Northern Ireland -- a walk of 23 kilometers which took us over 5 hours in total!
