In the second episode of this four-part series, podcaster and academic Dario Llinares and Lori Beckstead, Associate Professor of sound media in the RTA School of Media at Toronto Metropolitan University, explore how scholarly podcasting can challenge the traditional principles of academic research. To start, our guests share the ways podcast studies fits within media studies and outline why academics choose podcasting to discuss their scholarship. Underscoring the conversational and “human” characteristics of the medium, they explain how a podcast works in conversation with the guests, research, and audience, encouraging a concise and accessible approach to scholarly communication. Further, Lori and Dario share that while institutions have begun to understand and appreciate the scholarly potential and rigor of podcasting, the medium’s emphasis on fostering ongoing dialogues opposes traditional research’s focus on citations and output.
