(A Podcast About) Making Better Podcasts
The power of audio is nearly limitless. With nothing but a microphone and a laptop, you can create podcasts that truly move people, inspire them, confound them, comfort them, make them laugh, cry, scream, shudder, lull them to sleep, or rouse them to action. But to do this consistently, you need to understand the building blocks of audio storytelling: things like format, structure, narrative, rhythm, texture, and intention.
Join CitizenRacecar’s Founder and Principal David Hoffman on an immersive and unpredictable journey that will help you learn and master these fundamental concepts. We guarantee it’s like nothing you’ve listened to before.
