The Audio Podcast Fellows program offers nine months of advanced, hands-on training to introduce students to every
aspect of podcasting, from storytelling and writing, sound editing and production,
to marketing, branding, distribution
and more.
Throughout the Fellows program, students have the option to work on a variety of shows with our production partners, while producing a portfolio that will include the completion of a podcast pilot ready to take to market.
Admission is selective and limited to 10 Fellows at each site.
Application deadline is July 20, 2020.

What They're Saying
"You may have heard that anyone can have a podcast, and although that is technically true, not everyone should.
What this class provides is the space where smart and creative individuals with great project ideas can learn how to best engage with an audience through this audio format - in a way that is authentic, effective, entertaining and worthwhile.
Speaking to them completely energized me and I left excited to hear the audio masterpieces they are working on and look forward to what they are planning to create in the near future.
These are the people who should have a podcast."
Ophira Eisenberg- Host of Ask Me Another, stand-up performer and writer
