So IR folks, do any of you use podcasts as texts for your 100 level classes? I'm trying to rethink some readings, bc when classes went online this spring, all the time at their own desk wore on students. With a podcast they could go for a jog, a drive, etc.
I've used podcasts as texts occasionally -- the NPR Lost in Translation episode about disinformation in Ukraine, for example -- but have never used more than one or two episodes from different shows over the course of a semester.
Now I'm considering using a limited series podcast or two (ones that have international issues that frame the content, but aren't necessarily IR/FP podcasts) as an organizational device for the class: to set the stakes, to introduce concepts and themes.
And I'm curious: have any of you ever done this? How did it go? What worked? What didn't?
Anyway, please reach out if you're willing to share your experience though this. Thanks!

Or reach out if you've been considering this too. Happy to help ideas take shape together...
