SHOW NOTES

This week’s podcast features several podcast scholars reporting on their recent research regarding podcast formalization and platformization. The panel is moderated by John Sullivan from Muhlenberg College. This panel was originally intended to be presented at the annual meeting of the Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR) in Dublin, Ireland, but was transitioned to an online conference after the global pandemic. In keeping with the spirit of the topic, we decided to release our panel discussion in the form of a podcast. The panel of researchers presenting their work in this episode include:

• Tiziano Bonini, University of Siena, Italy
  
• Dario Llinares University of Brighton, UK
  
• Richard Berry University of Sunderland, UK
  
• Patricia Aufderheide American University, USA
  
• John L. Sullivan, Muhlenberg College, USA
  

Interact with us! We invite your participation in this panel. If you have any thoughts, reflections, questions, or reactions to any of the presentations or topics discussed in this episode, just reach out to us via Twitter using the hashtag: #AoIR2020PL10. We will reply and get the discussion going via social media.
