Four New Episodes of the Atlas Obscura Podcast Out Now

In early fall of 2021, I got to partner with the great team of podcasters at Atlas Obscura and Witness Docs to produce four episodes of the Atlas Obscura podcast. Using a variety of storytelling techniques (including compilations, deep-dives, and call-backs), I was able to take on nearly all aspects of production of these four audience engagement episodes. I got to identify the most compelling stories from a repository of listener voicemails, script host monologues around existing tape, perform additional research, conduct call-backs, assist with story editing, participate in tracking sessions and narration coaching, and create rough technical edits of the episodes (with sound design). Thank you to the Atlas Obscura team for letting me join in on the fun!

Episodes:
Magical Summer Memories Volume 1: The Unexpected
Magical Summer Memories Volume 2: Via Francigena
Magical Summer Memories Volume 3: The Cardiff Giant
Magical Summer Memories Volume 4: The Awe of the Water

 
The Cardiff Giant, or “Old Hoaxy,” was “discovered” in New York in 1869. Learn more about it in the Atlas Obscura listener voicemail episode.
