The articles examine various aspects of this evolving landscape, including the integration of video in podcasting, the expressive potential of narrative nonfiction podcasts, the use of binaural sound in journalism, the dynamic podcasting industry in Brazil, strategies for engaging young audiences in public radio, the impact of virtual reality and AI on podcasting and the use of ethnographic methods in audio documentaries.

Aims & Scope

 

Radio Journal publishes critical analyses of radio and sound media across a variety of platforms, from broadcast to podcast and all in between. Articles focus on both historical and contemporary issues in sound-based journalism and media studies. We look for work that explores the production, circulation and reception of radio and creative soundwork, and encourage a wide range of international and interdisciplinary perspectives. All research articles undergo rigorous double-blind peer review.
