Jacobs Media has announced its speaker/session lineup for its third “Broadcasters Meet Podcasters” program at the 2019 Podcast Movement (August 13-16 in Orlando).
“When we attended our first Podcast Movement four years ago, there was just a handful of broadcasters in attendance,” Jacobs Media’s President Fred Jacobs recalls. “Fast forward to 2019 and podcasting has become a significant opportunity for radio companies. Hundreds of radio broadcasters and savvy podcasters will join us this year.”
“Broadcasters Meet Podcasters” will also present a first-ever live focus group of the Stacking Benjamins podcast. And on Friday morning, there will be a first-ever “Podcasting Speed Mentoring” event where podcasters can sit down and speak directly with some of the industry’s leading experts in the field. Each morning, “Broadcasters Meet Podcasters” leads off with a distinguished keynoter: Conal Byrne, Eric Nuzum, and Steve Lickteig.
Jacobs Media’s 2019 “Broadcasters Meet Podcasters” agenda’s highlights include: • Radio Leadership panel, moderated by Grammar Girl Mignon Fogarty, featuring Alpha Media’s Phil Becker, Corus’ Chris Duncombe, Hubbard Radio’s Wheeler Morris, and Bonneville’s Sheryl Worsley. • “What Does Public Radio Know That You Don’t Know?” moderated by podcaster and Moth Radio Hour storyteller Shannon Cason, featuring PRX’s Kerri Hoffman, WFAE’s Joni Deutsch, and American Public Media’s Natalie Jablonski. • A session in the Ted Talks format, where broadcasters will tell the stories behind how they took a local news event and turned it into a podcast. The session will feature Michigan Radio’s Jennifer Guerra (Believed), WTOP’s Julia Ziegler (22 Hours: An American Nightmare), Boston 25’s Dalton Main (Mass. Marijuana), and WDIV/Detroit’s Jeremy Allen and Zak Rosen (Shattered).
