For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] The Arts of Amnesia: The Case for Audio Drama, Part One Abstract This article examines what the relationship between audio drama and radio drama might illuminate about both forms. Drawing on some 40 podcasts and other audio forms that take a serial structure, I explore the rise of audio drama podcasts since 2015 and situate them in both a more recent historical context since the late 1990s and in a broader history stretching back to the first Golden Age of adio.r By listening closely to key works on Serendipity, Homecoming and other podcasts, I argue that contemporary audio has profound potential to change both how we listen and how we relate to the sound media of the past. This is Part One of a two-part series. Keywords Radio Drama, Audio Drama, Homecoming, Serendipity, Radio History, Podcasting This article is available in RadioDoc Review: https://ro.uow.edu.au/rdr/vol3/iss1/5 The Arts of Amnesia: The Case for Audio Drama, Part One By Neil Verma, Northwestern University Audio Drama / Radio Drama No genre stirs dust into the shafts of sunlight in the attic of media history quite like radio drama, so it is no surprise that the recent rise of fiction among podcasters has clouded a problem that has been vexing critical and historical thought that surrounds the medium.

  • Book Club Answers and Questions.Pages
    BOOK CLUB QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Barbara Roberts aka The Doctor Broad Q: How long did it take you to write this book? A: I began writing this book while on sabbatical from my cardiology practice in 2000. The first draft took me about five months of writing full-time but I have re-written it multiple times over the ensuing years. Q: Why did you wait so long to have it published? A: Once my two-year sabbatical was over, and I started and directed The Women’s Cardiac Center at the Miriam Hospital in Providence, RI, I didn’t want to be sitting in the office across from my patients, both new and established, knowing they were privy to all the details of my lurid past! Once I retired from practice in 2016, I decided it was time to find a publisher and get my story out there. Q: Was it hard to get the book published? A: The hardest part of getting a book published is finding an agent. I was fortunate in that my agent was a big fan of the Crimetown podcasts, and he actually came looking for me. Most publishing houses will only read book proposal submissions from literary agents. Q: How did you get involved in the Crimetown podcasts? A: I had long been friends with Sheila Bentley, ex-wife of Providence’s infamous mayor, the late Buddy Cianci. Sheila was approached by Marc Smerling, Emmy-award-winning co- producer (for best documentary, The Jinx, on HBO) to be interviewed for the podcast, which examined the intersection of politics and the Mafia in Providence.

  • How to Make Time Fly While Truck Driving
    HOW TO MAKE TIME FLY WHILE TRUCK DRIVING TOP PODCASTS ORGANIZED BY GENRE If you’re a truck driver, you know that keeping your focus when you’re on the road can be challenging. You’ve undoubtedly done some long hauls in your day, and you’ve had to figure out creative ways to pass the time. It can be a difficult, lonely job, but you’re up to the task. Today, we’re here to make your job a little easier, and a little less lonely… with Podcasts! WHAT ARE PODCASTS? Think of Podcasts as the Netflix of radio or the modern equivalent of audiobooks. Netflix offers an enormous amount of TV programming and movies at the click of a button, but the platform is not accessible through standard cable television programming. Nor is it the best option for pro- fessional drivers! Podcasts work almost the exact same way, but with one big difference: they are usually FREE and are perfect for life on the road! Podcasts are audio experiences that will transport you to another world, and keep your head in the game while you’re on the road. And just like Netflix, there’s a podcast for every personality type and interest. HOW DO THEY WORK? The biggest thing holding most people back from the pod-sphere is a lack of tech savvy. There is a glaring lack of knowledge about where to find podcasts, and how to listen to them. Just to cover all our bases, let’s talk about this before we move on…. Podcasts might sound like a radio program, but you can’t ‘tune into’ a podcast using your radio dial.

    ISOJ 2018: Day 2, Afternoon Session AUDIO: From Podcasts to Alexa, Hey Google and Siri, Journalism is Raising The Voice Chair: Kathleen Kingsbury, Deputy Editorial Page Editor, The New York Times • Tamar Charney, Managing Editor at NPR One, NPR • Ann Li, Interactive Audio Producer, Washington Post • Caitlin Thompson, U.S. Director of Content, Acast (Sweden) • Jillian Weinberger, Senior Producer for Audio, Vox Media and Vox.com Tamar Charney: Yay, thank you. For those of you who are not from the states, and you’re like, “What is NPR?”, the short-hand is, “Think BBC minus television with a slightly different funding model.” [laughter] Oh, clicker. I’m like, how do I turn my slides? OK. So, I’m the managing editor of NPR One. And NPR’s heritage has been radio. And it’s been really exciting recently to be at this moment where it seems that audio is really making a comeback. We’re having renaissance of people getting into the space of using radio reporting techniques and podcasts and way beyond. But I remember a moment not too long ago where we in public radio were actually pretty frightened. We were supposed to up our digital game. And at the time, digital meant stories that you write using words to be read, like, on a screen. And we were audio people. We were used to telling stories using fleeting sounds. This was our art. We transported people through this art form. And that sounds a little earnest, and it probably was, and so they made fun of us, of course, for it.

  • AN ECOLOGICAL and SOCIAL MOVEMENT THEORY APPROACH to TRUE CRIME PODCAST PHENOMENA by LINDS
    “SUDDENLY, THE PODCAST WAS SEXY”: AN ECOLOGICAL AND SOCIAL MOVEMENT THEORY APPROACH TO TRUE CRIME PODCAST PHENOMENA by LINDSEY A. SHERRILL WILSON LOWREY, COMMITTEE CHAIR MATTHEW BARNIDGE SUZANNE HORSLEY MIRIAM SWEENEY MATTHEW WEBER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Communication & Information Sciences in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2019 Copyright Lindsey A. Sherrill 2019 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT In recent years, true crime podcasting has exploded, both in number of podcasts and popular culture visibility. These podcasts act as organizations with maintenance orientations, such as mobilizing resources, competing with other organizations, increasing legitimacy, and focusing on sustaining foundings and preventing mortalities. This population also exhibits isomorphism and development of organizational form and identity. Some of these podcasts have social movement orientations as well, particularly in relation to criminal justice reform goals. As social movement organizations, they view listeners as constituents, mobilize resources, created relationship networks with similar organizations, and work to establish collective awareness and legitimacy. This study explores this media phenomenon from the perspective of organizational ecology and social movement theories using a mixed methods approach. A demography of true crime podcasts was conducted in order to find a sample approaching a population, identify dates of foundings and mortalities, and calculate population density over time. Content analysis of news articles mentioning “true crime podcasts” was conducted to measure public legitimacy of the true crime podcast population. Additionally, 12 true crime podcasters were interviewed, and their interviews were analyzed qualitatively to further explore this phenomenon in light of theory and emerging concepts.

    Podcastliste: Dansk Billede Titel Beskrivelse Maritime emner SEA HEALTH & Denne podcast omhandler det gode WELFARE PODCAST arbejdsliv til søs. Om det er velfærdstips som: motion, mad eller bøger, eller om det er arbejdsmiljø som: langtidspåvirkninger eller nudging, intet emne er for stort og intet for lille. Vi brænder for at alle søfolk skal have det godt – nu og i fremtiden! Det maritime danmark Med denne programserie om Det Maritime Danmark sættes der fokus på havets påvirkning af vores fælles historie. Danmark har over 8.750 km kystlinje og er omkranset af vand. Alt, hvad der har med havet at gøre, har gennem århundrede præget den danske kultur. I mange familier har forfædrene sejlet, fisket eller bygget skibe. Maritime udtryk har sneget sig ind i vores sprog, hvorfor vi kryber til køjs, får lidt for meget indenbords og har lig i lasten. Emnerne i serien spænder vidt, fra historien om Hans Hedtofts forlis over søkrig i 2. Verdenskrig og livet som sømandskone til handel med verden og de små færgers betydning for Danmarks små øer. Undervandsitetet Dykning og fiskeri Aktuel underholdning og debat Det næste kapitel Én gang om ugen møder Iben Maria Zeuthen en aktuel person og interviewer vedkommende i en time. Senere på ugen går Iben Maria Zeuthen og samme person i studiet for at tale om alt det, der skulle have været sagt i det første kapitel. Iben Maria Zeuthen spørger om alt det, hun gerne ville have spurgt om, men først kom i tanke om, da det var for sent. Iben interviewer både forfattere, musikere, skuespillere og en gang imellem også en politiker, og det er så dejligt at der er tid til at høre, hvad gæsterne har at sige, det er en samtale snarere end et interview.
