Summary: It was fun to present a short session on ‘How to Make a Podcast’ at the MCAN/TAC conference. If you are interested in podcasting, but need to have some of the mystery removed, listen here for tips that we have learned in working on the “Climate Minute” and “A Climate Hawk’s Companion” podcast series. Note that we’ve included some of the slides from the talk as part of the podcast (if you download the file and play it in your own media player -- just as an experiment!) This blog is mostly links. You can find the context for them in the podcast. Just click on the icon to listen, or subscribe to us on iTunes. Good examples of podcasts that you might want to imitate: Mike Duncan's "A History of Rome" is a compelling ‘monologue’ format. BBC's "A History of the World in 100 Objects" is in the documentary style. Slate's Gabfest. is a group discussion. All Songs Considered is a highly focused ‘interview’ show.
