What We’re Listening To
AJ: The Mindful Educators Podcast – Made for teachers, by teachers. Erin and Dave Tashian, an awesome husband and wife team, are creating a community of educators who are cultivating a positive school culture one mindful classroom at a time. 7 episodes so far and growing… Episodes focus on Mindful practices to start the new year, balance as an educator, mindful listening and finding your personal motivation to stay positive.
Chris: the memory palace – The Memory Palace is a storytelling podcast and occasional radio segment created and produced by Nate DiMeo. It was a finalist for a Peabody Award in 2016. It is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX, a collective of independent podcasts. New episodes come out during the first and third weeks of the month, barring the occasional holiday break. I was exposed to this podcast listening to an episode of RadioLab that featured a number of clips from the memory place and Nate was on the show talking about the clips and how he makes the show.
Stacey: I am not listening to anything new. In fact, I am looking for a strategy to get from 1539 to PodcastZERO! Listeners, if you have a good strategy for me to get through my podcasts, I’m all ears. Vox me at iruntech!
