With millions of podcasts ready to listen to, it can feel daunting to begin your journey as a new creator. How can you stand out from the crowd? This episode we talk to Dan Misener, the Broadcaster in Residence at RTA's Allan Slaight Radio Institute to learn about podcast packaging, how podcasters can find their niche and reach their target audience. From the epic journey of the Canadian curling team, to the very different experiences of immigrant sisters, to dismantling toxic masculinity in Star Wars, we’ve got a wide range of projects for you to listen to and some really talented students to meet along the way.

Strap your headphones on because we’re exploring a new dimension of immersive and interactive sound! This episode features guest hosts Finlay Braithwaite and Kevin Konarzewski as they describe what the brand new RTA 864 (Advanced Audio Immersive and Interactive Sound) course at X University has to offer along with sharing some incredible assignments created by students. We’ll listen to surround remixes, ambisonic, immersive and interactive projects. The coolest part? ALL of these projects were created at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. No studios or fancy equipment, just good old fashioned creativity and some help from tools like Reaper, ProTools and Unity game engine.

*This episode is best listened to with headphones. For the immersive and interactive assignments we strongly encourage you to watch the videos linked in our show notes to enjoy the full experience of these assignments.
