  • Episode 249 Transcript: Hrishikesh Hirway Part 2
    EPISODE 249 TRANSCRIPT: HRISHIKESH HIRWAY PART 2 Lin-Manuel Miranda 0:00 [INTRO] Hi, I'm stage and stages Lin Manuel Miranda and you're listening to The Hamilcast. Gillian Pensavalle 0:18 Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the Hamilcast. I'm Gillian and this is the second half of my conversation with Hrishikesh Hirway, you know from Song Exploder, The West Wing Weekly and a ton of other things. For real though he has the definition of nonstop. Last week in Episode 248 he told us all about his early connections to Lin and Tommy, how he created a song with Lin all about The West Wing... I'm sure you've heard it, his complicated feelings on musicals, and so much more. So definitely make sure you listen to that episode before listening to this one because if you don't, it'll be like trying to talk to Lin and Tommy without referencing The West Wing. It just.. it wont work. Oh, quick reminder that you can now get transcripts of new episodes as they're released, and the back catalogue episodes are being updated on an ongoing basis. All transcripts are at thehamilcast.com, as well as the show notes of the corresponding episode. If you're all caught up, I'll leave you to it. Here's Part Two with Hrishikesh Hirway. Gillian Pensavalle 1:13 I would love to really get into the details of that. Of just the the Wait For It episode specifically because Hrishikesh Hirway 1:19 Yeah Gillian Pensavalle 1:20 When Alex Lacamoire came over, he had three episodes and basically did what you did with Song Exploder with the Schuyler Sisters and just sort of anything like he came..

  • Branding the Iconic Ideals of Vivienne Westwood, Barack Obama, and Pope Francis
    PUNK, OBAMACARE, AND A JESUIT: BRANDING THE ICONIC IDEALS OF VIVIENNE WESTWOOD, BARACK OBAMA, AND POPE FRANCIS AIDAN MOIR A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION & CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO April 2021 © Aidan Moir, 2021 Abstract Practices of branding, promotion, and persona have become dominant influences structuring identity formation in popular culture. Creating an iconic brand identity is now an essential practice required for politicians, celebrities, global leaders, and other public figures to establish their image within a competitive media landscape shaped by consumer society. This dissertation analyzes the construction and circulation of Vivienne Westwood, Barack Obama, and Pope Francis as iconic brand identities in contemporary media and consumer culture. The content analysis and close textual analysis of select media coverage and other relevant material on key moments, events, and cultural texts associated with each figure deconstructs the media representation of Westwood, Obama, and Pope Francis. The brand identities of Westwood, Pope Francis, and Obama ultimately exhibit a unique form of iconic symbolic power, and exploring the complex dynamics shaping their public image demonstrates how they have achieved and maintained positions of authority. Although Westwood, Obama, and Pope Francis initially were each positioned as outsiders to the institutions of fashion, politics, and religion that they now represent, the media played a key role in mainstreaming their image for public consumption. Their iconic brand identities symbolize the influence of consumption in shaping how issues of public good circulate within public discourse, particularly in regard to the economy, health care, social inequality, and the environment.

  • Yer a Reader, Harry: HP Reread Podcasts As Digital Reading Communities
    . Volume 16, Issue 1 May 2019 Yer a reader, Harry: HP Reread Podcasts as digital reading communities Hannah McGregor, Simon Fraser University, Canada Abstract: The emergence of reread podcasts – in which hosts revisit a favourite book or series, inviting listeners to reread alongside them – offers insight into new digital reading communities that often emerge around active fandoms. Focusing on the popular sub-genre of Harry Potter reread podcasts, this paper asks what lessons these new reading communities can teach us about the practice of rereading, the capacity of podcasts to create new kinds of interactive publics, the link between podcasts and fan communities, and the roles these podcasts play in readers’ lives. Interactive and participatory yet structured around the expertise of the host, reread podcasts have the potential to become pedagogical and thus transformative online spaces. Keywords: Harry Potter; podcasts; fandom; rereading; reading communities The world of digital reading encompasses blogs, Goodreads pages, social media feeds and fan fiction archives – but a particularly understudied facet of contemporary digital reading is the ever-growing genre of reread podcasts. In this genre, hosts revisit a favourite book or series, inviting listeners to reread alongside them. While the hosts offer their own commentary, they also encourage response and engagement from listeners, framing themselves as both expert commentators and fellow readers – and, usually, fans. This paper considers the unique digital reading communities that have emerged around Harry Potter (HP) reread podcasts, including Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, Potterless Podcast, and my own podcast, Witch, Please. Writing from the perspective of a producer, a reader, a fan, and an academic – a member of this reading community in all ways – I’m interested in how reread podcasts frame the cultural role of the Harry Potter series while encouraging interactive and self-reflexive communities of interpretation.

So I studied in Freiburg, which is about 00:01:01 four-and-a-half hours via train away from from where I grew up. And it 00:01:09 was very... it was lonely at first. I think that's why I started listening to 00:01:11 podcasts, so it’s very much like a classic story of podcasting, helping to fill the time and have some people in my ear that I could kind of. That's interesting that I never thought about it like that, because 00:01:27 afterwards all of the podcasts that I listened to were comedy podcasts when I had finished the… wait, I mean, I'm not sure how familiar you are with fan podcasts and how they work, but mostly they follow a specific series from beginning to end.
