[For this year’s Valentine’s Day series, I wanted to highlight some of the wonderful podcasts on which I’ve been honored to be interviewed. Leading up to a weekend post highlighting a handful of other great podcasts—share ones you love as well, please!]
Great public
scholarly podcasts are partly about their specific niche and angle, as I
discussed yesterday; but they’re also about the particular voices and
perspectives of their hosts. Another excellent new podcast on which I
was honored to appear last year is Impressions
of America, a podcast co-hosted by three UK graduate students (Vaughn,
Simon, and Tobi) that explores all things American Studies from that
international perspective. Even when their episodes feature just those three
hosts (as is often the case), the combination of their individual perspectives
and their shared dynamics make the episodes must-listen—and when they bring in
a guest, as they did for my episode, it only adds another layer to that unique
and compelling existing dynamic. I love this trio and can’t wait to see where
they take the podcast (and its
spinoffs!) next!
Last podcast
tomorrow,
Ben
PS. Podcasts you
love?
