The first episode of the Transnational Radio Encounters podcast; or “TREpod”, for short.

TREpod will document The Radio Conference 2016: Transnational Radio Encounters, held at Utrecht University.

The conference will explore the way radio shapes transnational public spheres, in support or subversion of existing infrastructures and media ecologies; transnational perspectives on radio aesthetics and identities; and ways in which new forms of digital radio and archives can help to shape or resurrect transnational communities of memory.

In this first episode of the TREE pod, ahead of the Radio Conference, we meet the principal investigators; their research, their contributions to the project, and their appreciation for transnational radio.
