Channel 253: Tacoma’s Podcast Network

Over the past 15 years, podcasts have given a microphone to voices that might have otherwise never found an audience. While newspapers have been either folding or drastically reducing the capacity of their coverage— at a time when the importance of rigorous journalism is needed more than ever— podcasts have created a greater outlet for news. Creating content that can be as niche as possible, podcasts provide coverage for just about every interest you can imagine, effectively democratizing entertainment in a way that’s never quite been done before.
