So IR folks, do any of you use podcasts as texts for your 100 level classes? I& #39;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& #39;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& #39;m considering using a limited series podcast or two (ones that have international issues that frame the content, but aren& #39;t necessarily IR/FP podcasts) as an organizational device for the class: to set the stakes, to introduce concepts and themes.

And I& #39;m curious: have any of you ever done this? How did it go? What worked? What didn& #39;t?

Anyway, please reach out if you& #39;re willing to share your experience though this. Thanks!

Or reach out if you& #39;ve been considering this too. Happy to help ideas take shape together...
