Spark Talk: So, you want to make a podcast? by Vinita Srivastava (Jan 13, 2023)
Description: Podcasting is one way a researcher/academic can make their work accessible to mainstream audiences outside of their fields of study. It is also a way of meeting a like-minded community.? This workshop is intended for researchers thinking about or already engaging in podcast-making and explores the practice of getting to a good podcast interview both as an interviewee and an interviewer. What are the steps needed, practically to prepare oneself for the studio? During the past 2 years, I’ve worked with The Conversation Canada to create four seasons of the successful podcast, Don’t Call Me Resilient. The pod takes a critical race lens in it’s content but also process. We seek to acknowledge the past harms of media in service of the colonial project. In other words, the way we make podcasts — including the choices we make about what and who to include in a podcast can help (or hinder) the re-centring of marginalized voices.
