4 OCT 2019 · 2:00 pm: WNYC Studios’ Podcast Accelerator: Winners Announced!
You pitched our panel your best podcast ideas, and now one Werker will win the chance to develop a pilot with WNYC Studios. Made possible with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
2:15 pm: Beyond Underwear & Mattresses: Scaling A Multimillion Dollar Podcasting Business
As the podcasting industry grows into a billion dollar ad business, the field is open for women and non-binary professionals to lead innovation on the revenue side. Let’s tackle the challenges ahead for producers as podcast advertising continues to evolve within the broader digital advertising landscape.
Presenters: Katie Sprenger (Lead Branded Audio Producer, Vox Media Podcast Network) + Caila Litman (Senior Manager, Audio Revenue, Vox Media Podcast Network)
3:00 pm: Taking Up Your Space: Real Talk About Hosting
There’s great responsibility in taking the mic: To respect your guests and sources, to serve your listeners, and to present yourself well (as well as the hard work of the team behind you) -- and that’s just for starters. Learn how to navigate all the challenges, from balancing air time with male co-hosts, to creating an accessible and welcoming experience for guests, and handling expectations specific to being a woman or a POC.
Moderator: Shereen Marisol Meraji (Co-Host, Code Switch) / Panelists: Rund Abdelfatah (Co-Host and Co-Producer of Throughline) + Misha Euceph (Host and Producer, KPCC) + Alice Wong (Host and Co-Producer, Disability Visibility)
4:00pm: Who Are You Making This For?
If we can agree that it’s imperative to identify a target audience before making a new podcast, why do things still get so fuzzy when we talk about reaching “diverse” audiences? Enter our panel with experiences that span decades, coasts, cultures and mediums, here to spill tea, share lessons learned from the audio trenches, and offer strategies to intentionally make podcasts for and by people of color.
Moderator: Cristina Kim (Podcast Producer, Truth Be Told) / Panelists: Tonya Mosley (Host, Truth Be Told & co-host of Here & Now) + Kameel Stanley (Senior Producer, The City) + Berry Syk (Creator, Podcasts in Color)
5:00 pm: Closing Session
