2024-07-16 I think this happens to reporters a lot. They see someone who looks interesting. They chat with them, and they think, “Hunh, maybe there’s a story here.” It happened to David Weinberg. Back in 2016 or so, David was producing a series on South Los …›
2024-07-11 Hello! Welcome (back) to All Hear, the Everything List for Audio Opportunities. I recently read a thread in UKAN — a listserv for U.K. audio producers — about people considering leaving the audio industry. It was heartbreaking to read about so many …›
2024-07-02 One of my favorite past times is sending music to friends, usually a link to a song sent by text. Punk, dub, and experimental music to my friends Sven and Matthias. Avant-garde classical and electronic music to Carla… For my daughter, Gwen, I usually …›
2024-06-17 I picked up on something Ira Glass said in the last episode of Sound School that I want to highlight here. Rather than structuring a story as a collection of arguments and ideas, structure it as a narrative, a sequence of events. This happened, then th …›

2024-06-04 I started counting the number of valuable tips Ira Glass of This American Life offers on this episode of Sound School and I gave up. There were too many. Tips on writing, reporting, structure, scoring… In fact, I think this rare recording I’m featu …›
2024-05-21 I remember thinking: Uh, oh. We hired the wrong translator. I was in Brazil, Rio de Janeiro to be exact, reporting a story on pretrial detention — a netherworld between arrest and arraignment. In Rio and many places around the world, once someone …›
2024-05-07 (I recommend you listen to this episode before reading this post or listening to the audio excerpt below. All of it will make much more sense.) Back in the aughts, one of my students was producing a profile of a singer songwriter. During editorial meet …›
2024-05-02 Hello! Welcome (back) to All Hear, the Everything List for Audio Opportunities. In some personal news, I’m headed to New York for the first two weeks of June to host an In The Dark event at the Tribeca festival — I would love to meet some audio mak …›
2024-04-23 Right this minute, I’m riding an Amtrak train, heading home after visiting my daughter at college. It’s supposed to be a day off. No work. I thought I’d read a book (In case you’re wondering, I packed two: Mama’s Last Hug and How the Garcia G …›

2024-04-09 During the first couple of minutes of this episode, I take NPR to task for the preponderance of two-ways on the network’s news programs. In particular, my distaste for host interviews with reporters where everything sounds so unsurprising. This is es …›
2024-04-04 Hello! Welcome (back) to All Hear, the Everything List for Audio Opportunities. You might know me as an organiser of resources, but I’m an audio maker too! Last month I wrote an article for Transom, The Many Lives of “Dead Ends”, about a piece I …›

2024-03-26 Dale Lumsden taught me how to cut tape — as in reel-to-reel tape. I call his teaching approach “The Lumsden Method.” The way Dale did it was this: He straightened himself up at the mic. Got his copy ready. Cleared his throat. Hit record. And …›
2024-03-19 Searching for Story A big “thing” happened early on in my life: my Mum died. When I was three years old she fell off of a cliff while on a work trip in Spain. Her death was ruled an accident, and I grew up knowing that to be true, but as a teenager …›

2024-02-27 A journalist friend of mine once joked, “This is how journalists count: One. Two. Trend.” Just in case it doesn’t make sense, I’ll explain. Reporters often seek to report stories on trends. If a bunch of houses go up for sale in a neighborhood, …›

2024-02-13 I remember talking to Matej Praprotnik, the Assistant Director of Radio at Radio Slovenia, and practically demanding that he “Get Maja out of the studio!” In another meeting, this time with Mirko Stular, the Director of Radio, I made the same state …›
2024-01-30 One of the strangest things I’ve ever seen in a radio studio — maybe the strangest thing I’ve seen — happened during a class on DJing I was teaching at KUNV, a community radio station in Las Vegas. A student sat down in front of the mix …›

2023-12-19 The opening to the previous episode of Sound School was boring. Dull. Uninteresting. As Ira Glass has put it, “Story equals bait plus narrative.” Well, there was nothing “bait-y” about the first two minutes of that episode, the one feat …›
