Hang Out with Simplecast in LA and Toronto This June
The only thing better than podcasting is the podcasting community–which is why we love any opportunity to get involved with killer audio events! This June, we’ll be in LA and Toronto for two amazing events. Get more info below, then RSVP. (And say hi if you see us!)
YT Space Presents: Why Podcasting? With Pacific Content and Simplecast
Monday, June 17th
Toronto
Whether you’re thinking about starting a podcast, or already a few episodes in, it’s important to think about how and why to measure your success. What do you hope to gain from your show, and what metrics can you use to track your progress? Join industry insiders as they discuss the real returns you can expect from a podcast, and how to evaluate them.
Panelists include Dan Misener (Pacific Content), Tanya Springer (CBC Podcasts), Takara Small (Host of I’ll Go First), Hannah Sung (TVO Digital Video & Podcasts Manager), and Lindsay Michael (Podcast Playlist, CBC Radio)
An Extraordinary Evening: For Podcasters of Color
Thursday, June 27th
Los Angeles
Join us for a night of food, fun, and fellowship as we come together to lay the groundwork for the much needed wholesale changes necessary to achieve equitable treatment within the podcasting industry.
Whether you’re already a podcaster or considering becoming one, this event serves as an excellent opportunity to network, collaborate, and exchange resources and information with other talented podcasters of color in a diverse and inclusive space that often times doesn’t exist.
We’ll begin with a networking mixer before segueing into an informative panel and Q&A featuring some of the most important figures within the podcast medium — Each of whom just so happens to be a person of color.
Panelists include Amber J. Phillips, Co-Host of “The Black Joy Mixtape”; Misha Euceph, Co-Host and Producer of KPCC’s “Tell Them, I Am” & “The Big One: Your Survival Guide”; and Diosa Femme, Co-Host of “Locatora Radio.”
