  • Podcaster Prosody: Creaky Voice and Sarah Koenig's Journalistic Persona
    Volume 6 Issue 2 2020 Podcaster Prosody: Creaky Voice and Sarah Koenig’s Journalistic Persona Edgar Yau [email protected] ISSN: 2057-1720 doi: 10.2218/ls.v6i2.2020.5215 This paper is available at: http://journals.ed.ac.uk/lifespansstyles Hosted by The University of Edinburgh Journal Hosting Service: http://journals.ed.ac.uk/ Podcaster Prosody: Creaky Voice and Sarah Koenig’s Journalistic Persona Edgar Yau This paper addresses the style-shifting of podcast host Sarah Koenig, specifically in her use of utterance final creaky voice in different contexts. I find that Koenig uses more creaky voice on her podcast Serial than in an interview context. Additionally, her creaky voice in the interview occurs in specific contexts related to her work as a journalist. Based on analyses of how phonetic features can construct certain personae, I argue that Koenig may be designing her speech to construct a journalistic persona with her use of creaky voice. 1 Introduction Podcasts are episodic audio series that are typically downloaded and streamed. In purely auditory mediums like podcasts and radio, hosts must connect with their audience through only their voice. While there are many linguistic studies about radio and radio hosts (e.g., Rodero 2014), there are very few studies on the language of podcasting and podcast hosts. In 2014, the creators of the popular American radio show This American Life uploaded the first episode of the podcast Serial, created and hosted by journalist and radio personality Sarah Koenig. Years after its initial release, Serial holds the record for the most listened to podcast of all time and had been downloaded over 320 million times as of its third season in late 2018 (Quah 2018).

  • When Podcast Met True Crime: a Genre-Medium Coevolutionary Love Story
    Article When Podcast Met True Crime: A Genre-Medium Coevolutionary Love Story Line Seistrup Clausen Stine Ausum Sikjær 1. Introduction “I hear voices talking about murder... Relax, it’s just a podcast” — Killer Instinct Press 2019 Critics have been predicting the death of radio for decades, so when the new podcasting medium was launched in 2005, nobody believed it would succeed. Podcasting initially presented itself as a rival to radio, and it was unclear to people what precisely this new medium would bring to the table. As it turns out, radio and podcasting would never become rivals, as podcasting took over the role of audio storytelling medium – a role that radio had abandoned prior due to the competition from TV. During its beginning, technological limitations hindered easy access to podcasts, as they had to be downloaded from the Internet onto a computer and transferred to an MP3 player or an iPod. Meanwhile, it was still unclear how this new medium would come to satisfy an audience need that other types of storytelling media could not already fulfill. Podcasting lurked just below the mainstream for some time, yet it remained a niche medium for many years until something happened in 2014. In 2014, the true crime podcast Serial was released, and it became the fastest podcast ever to reach over 5 million downloads (Roberts 2014). After its release, podcasting entered the “post-Serial boom” (Nelson 2018; Van Schilt 2019), and the true crime genre spread like wildfire on the platform. Statistics show that the podcasting medium experienced a rise in popularity after 2014, with nearly a third of all podcasts listed on iTunes U.S.

  • From Storytelling to Storylistening: How the Hit Podcast S-Town Reconfigured the Production and Reception of Narrative Nonfiction
    From Storytelling to Storylistening: How the Hit Podcast S-Town Reconfigured the Production and Reception of Narrative Nonfiction Ella Waldmann Université de Paris, France. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract The 2017 hit podcast S-Town has been hailed for inaugurating a new genre, the audio nonfiction novel. Drawing from the recent evolutions in the field of media-conscious narratology (Ryan and Thon; DeMair), this article envisions creative nonfiction podcasts as narrative constructs. Previous research has thus far tended to assimilate such original podcast productions to conventional radio programs, seldom taking into account the specificity of the podcast as a new medium. This article explores the implications of this innovation through the case study of S-Town. By reclaiming the model of the novel, S-Town’s innovative load paradoxically relies on a return to traditional written forms. But in terms of broadcasting and reception, the podcast introduces a change of paradigm insofar as it offers a more immersive and interactive listening experience. This experience is in turn embedded in the creative process, and narrative nonfiction becomes as much storytelling as storylistening. Keywords: podcasting; audio storytelling; S-Town; narrative nonfiction. https://doi.org/10.26262/exna.v0i4.7913 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Fifteen years after the term ‘podcast’ was coined by journalist Ben Hammersley in reference to the online radio practices that were budding in the early 2000s, podcasts have become ubiquitous.1 A recent study showed that in 2020, more than one third of Americans listened to podcasts at least once a month (Edison Research). The trajectory of podcasting from niche phenomenon to mainstream medium has been thoroughly documented by a growing body of literature on the subject (Bottomley; Berry, “Golden Age”; Bonini; Llinares et al.; McHugh “How”).

  • Serial Episode 3: “Leakin Park” Sarah Koenig
    Serial Episode 3: “Leakin Park” Sarah Koenig: From This American Life and WBEZ Chicago it’s Serial. One story week by week. I’m Sarah Koenig. The cops that investigated the murder of Hae Min Lee were both experienced Baltimore City detectives. Their names were Ritz and MacGillivary. Bill Ritz and Greg MacGillivary. And how I wish right now that I could play you tape of their perspective on this case, but they didn’t want to be interviewed. When Bill Ritz finally turned me down after six weeks of back and forth, he said he didn’t see the point. The case has been adjudicated. What good would it do? I also spoke on the phone, briefly, to MacGillivary and he said just a few sentences to me and one of them was “beyond question, he did it.” Meaning Adnan did it. He didn’t hem or haw or hesitate. He remembered the case right away. “Beyond question he did it.” How did they arrive at that level of certainty? Before Hae’s body was found, this was a missing person case. She disappeared January 13, and the investigation starts out a little slowly, which makes sense to me. She’s a not a small child, she’s eighteen. She’s got a car which is also missing. That first day, the police call around to her friends, they talk to Aisha, to Adnan, remember that’s when he tells them he was supposed to get a ride from her, but didn’t. The next day they call around to hospitals, hotels, motels, they check the area around the high school parking lot where she was last seen.

  • Truth Isn't Stranger Than Fanfiction
    1 Truth Isn’t Stranger than Fanfiction The Serial Podcast and Citizen Journalism MA Thesis University of Utrecht New Media and Digital Culture Student: Nicolás López Coombs (5499151) First reader: Jasper van Vught Second reader: René de Glas 10,710 words 21 March 2016 2 Summary When the blockbuster podcast Serial became famous it was seen as the proof that this relatively recent medium, podcasting, was worthy of mainstream attention. Sarah Koenig's story drew in record numbers of listeners as she explored the case of Adnan Syed, a young man convicted of the murder his ex-girlfriend, Hae Min Lee, but who insisted on his innocence. However, the popularity of this true crime story led to an outcome only possible in our social-digital age: listeners, connecting over the social news networking service Reddit, began to investigate the crime themselves. This activity falls into the category of citizen journalism, where non-professionals participate in journalistic activity. Literature on citizen journalism tends to focus on the technological, political or procedural aspects of the phenomenon. However, approaching the Serial case study from a fan studies point of view, as I do in this thesis, draws to the fore a number of parallels between this investigative community and fan communities. The Reddit users engaging in this investigation can be better understood by looking at the social aspects that motivate fan communities. Through that lens, it becomes apparent that this group is driven both to solve a crime and to prolong the interaction of its socially connected members. This contradiction, as well as the other social aspects of citizen journalism, ought to be thoroughly explored if we wish to truly understand this emerging field of participatory culture.
