ZERO to PODCAST

Have an idea for a podcast …

Join Lost in the Stacks co-host, Charlie Bennett, to learn the essentials of podcast production through hands-on design thinking and lean startup methodologies. ZERO to PODCAST is designed to help you move from creating one-directional materials (brochure, signs, lecture-style classes) into a community-building, storytelling mode. Podcasts are engagement with community, so whether you’re starting your own or helping others get started with theirs, this empathy-based workshop will have you ready to go.
