“…Practice-led approaches to research are becoming increasingly popular in media and communication studies (Vear, 2022). These approaches are often characterised by experimental and interdisciplinary methods (Jorgensen and Lindgren, 2022), particularly within journalism studies (Adams and Cooper, 2022;Harris and Taylor, 2021;Zafra, 2021) and podcast studies (Kerrigan et al, 2021). In podcast studies 'there is a growing interest in research 'by doing'' (Jorgensen, forthcoming).…”

“…From this broader analysis, the researchers identified six narrative journalism podcasts and of them, three podcasts applying both constructive and narrative journalism techniques, which then underwent a deep close listening analysis. Critical listening exercises are an increasingly common methodological approach within podcast studies, although they vary significantly (Jorgensen, forthcoming, Jorgensen and Lindgren, 2022). This study provides one approach to critical listening as part of the practice-led research process, and in doing so makes an important methodological contribution to the field in this respect.…”

COVID-19 showed the importance of trustworthy and accessible health information. News organisations increasingly introduced podcasting to keep their audiences informed. Podcasting's documented capacity for listener engagement makes it a pertinent medium to study another global public health threat – superbugs – through the lens of constructive journalism. Both constructive journalism and podcasting feature lived experiences of sources, in constructive journalism focused on empowering audiences to act. This practice-led research study is the first to explore how solutions-oriented journalism intersects with narrative podcasts. It demonstrates through the production of a podcast series about antimicrobial resistance (AMR), an affordance to tell complex and often scary health stories. It finds that podcasting can position individuals affected by AMR as sources of empowering information, rather than as victims. The study contributes new knowledge to constructive podcast journalism as an impactful approach in public health journalism, leveraging its potential to provide solutions to listeners and promote change.

“…The nature of the podcast medium is therefore well-suited, as Hilmes (2022: 12) has stated, to create a space of intimacy between podcast host and audiences that collapses the personal and public spheres. This opens up a sonic space for the personal to be political by speaking to social injustice in a documentary-styled exploration of a topic within a practice-as-method that provides space for research experimentation and reflexivity in producing new knowledge within a field (Jorgensen & Lindgren, 2022). Making these podcast concepts work in practice is the art of podcasting as alternative scholarship and is the aim of our podcast in exploring new materialist oceanic epistemologies in thinking in/with surfing.…”

This article introduces The Deep Duck Dive —a podcast engaging with the oceanic turn in the global South by focusing on issues that matter within surfing as a lifestyle sport. As co-hosts of the podcast, we have approached podcasting as forms of public pedagogy and public scholarship. Our aim is to increase the accessibility of scholarship and research by creating an alternative space for conversations with those outside of the academy. The article charts how we conceptualised and realised this podcast project as thinking with/in surfing. Within this epistemological approach, we seek to contribute to the intellectual currents of hydrocolonialism, hydrofeminism and critical surf studies, and to open our soundwork as an alternative pedagogical practice within justice-to-come public scholarship. To illustrate our podcasting style, reflexive of our positionalities as scholars and surfers, we have provided the transcript of our pilot episode.

Semi-structured interviews are useful for exploring participants experiences, understandings, and opinions on a particular issue. Traditionally, interviews have taken place in-person however, because of in-person restrictions with Covid-19, and with the changing landscape of online connection, opportunities have arisen for how to conduct interviews using an online platform. The purpose of this article is to highlight the first author’s experiences with using an online platform to conduct face-to-face interviews and the valuable contribution that online interviewing could offer as a valid research tool that differs to that of in-person face-to-face interviews. Online semi-structured interviews were conducted with fourteen midwives and five pregnant people from New Zealand using Microsoft Teams. Interviews were videorecorded and conducted as part of a larger mixed methods multiphase study to explore participants experiences with how they use communication technology to connect with one another. The interviews took place between September 2022 – May 2023. Two key areas which highlight the benefits and challenges with online interviews were identified. These were around the potential to ‘capture the essence of the person’ and through the flexibility of the technology in enabling FTF connections. Challenges were also noted around connectivity issues. Videorecording online interviews offered an ability to capture the ‘essence of the person’ through visual and auditory cues. These same cues were shown to assist with lipreading when transcribing inaudible words which can assist in the analysis of data. There were disruptions to some interviews due to interviewing taking place in the person’s home and connectivity issues, however, these were felt to be minimal. Online interviewing should not be considered a ‘poor relation’ to in-person face-to-face interviews, but instead, a valuable option that contributes towards the growing body of knowledge around online interviewing as a valid research tool that is different from face-to-face.
