Podcasting the Urban is a five-part series where we turn the academic gaze back onto our podcasting practice.
In 2018 City Road organised four public panel discussions to critically interrogate the idea of academics podcasting the urban, and we recorded two of them for this series. We ran the two recorded panel discussions as live listening events in front of a studio audience. At each event we played podcast excerpts from some of our favourite podcasts and we talked about them.
We discuss: oral storytelling and Indigenous methodologies as radio practice; the history of Aboriginal community radio in Sydney; podcasting as an engaged research methodology; podcasting as a research dissemination tool; the politics of representation and voice; working across sound, text and images; podcasting technology and narrative; journalism verses academic ethics; urban sounds as data; and more.
