It seems like there's a podcast for everyone these days. With the proliferation of so many, covering topics ranging from comedy to true crime to cultural criticism to auto repair, why should YOU start a podcast? How can Asian American voices contribute their own unique perspective and stand out among the array of narratives already out there?

Join us for a workshop and Q&A with Lee Uehara and Andrew Wang, founders of the Asian American Podcasters Association, and learn how you can share the stories that matter to you. If you are new to podcasting, the workshop will offer advice on why you should consider creating a podcast and the basics of getting started. If you're already posting episodes, learn how to build an audience and bring your best tips to share with others.

This workshop supports the missions of A4 and AAP to strengthen AAPI voices and stories, create community, and provide resources. Light refreshments will be served.
