Lending an Ear: Podcasts, Archives, and How We Can Help Each Other

---

Abstract

Radio and archives have always been linked for me; when I shelved manuscripts and books at my first job as an undergraduate, I tempered the monotony not with music but with radio shows. I kept listening through graduate school, and I kept listening through the job search, and still I kept listening as I began a career as an audio archivist. Today I’m an archivist at the Wisconsin Historical Society, digitizing audio to publish in an online Wisconsin Sound Archive collection, and my ears are seemingly always listening in on either an oral history captured in the 1960s or an informal radio piece done yesterday.
