Hurricane Maria. The Pulse Nightclub massacre. Charlottesville. Philando Castile. Uproar over racism at the University of Missouri. Adrián Florido (Code Switch) has spent much of his time at NPR reporting on the aftermath of traumatic events in communities of color.
In his 2019 Third Coast Conference session, Adrián spoke about the importance of reporting on people’s pain while avoiding narratives that often strip brown and black people of agency and power.
Note: Sessions are presented twice at the Third Coast Conference (once on Friday, once on Saturday). In this episode, you will hear the Q&A from both presentations of the session.

Some stories start out small, but turn out to be much, much bigger.
Have you ever asked the question: “...is my short news spot better suited to become a multi-part podcast series!?”
Jason Moon, reporter with New Hampshire Public Radio, discovered the answer was yes with the story that became Bear Brook, a podcast about murder in a small New Hampshire town and the invention of forensic genetic genealogy. Along the way, he learned a few things: like how writing for longform podcasts is different than writing for short news spots, how inserting yourself into a story can sometimes be a good thing, and how spending precious minutes developing characters in your story isn’t a pointless detour after all.
In his 2019 Third Coast Conference session, Jason Moon shared what learned along his journey from public radio beat reporter to longform podcast producer.

Swirling beneath every single one of this year’s breaking stories and major crises is work and labor: not only of the people in the headlines, but of the audio storytellers, ourselves.
How does the media fail to cover the working class, work, and labor? Why is working class, in media speak, a synonym for "white men?" And how does this impact our culture, our world, and our own spaces of work? Unless we confront the system of media we operate inside of and they way power works within our own industry, we can not properly confront and cover structural power and inequality as journalists and audio storytellers.
This opening panel from the 2019 Third Coast Conference was hosted by Sandhya Dirks, with panelists Carla Murphy, Afi Yellow-Duke and Emily Guendelsberger.

Just as our eyes work together to create a sense of depth perception, so too do our ears...
And yet, so few radio and podcast productions take advantage of the full stereo field—how differences between the “left” and “right” sides of a mix work together to create an immersive sense of space. How can we use this space to help us show vs. tell in radio storytelling, and create more visceral auditory imagery? In this session from the 2018 Third Coast Conference, Brendan Baker shared ideas, tools, and techniques to enhance our sense of space as both listeners and producers.
