S2EP5 – Presenting the European Podcast Academy

In this episode, we travel to Ljubljana. One of the most popular podcasts there, in Slovenia, is Lovim ravnotežje. Javi Caminero is joined by Nina Gaspari, host of that podcast, to learn about the current state of the podcast industry in Slovenia.   Listen to Nina’s recommendation:  Pod Save America: https://crooked.com/podcast-series/pod-save-america/   Follow us on all our socials (@wepodproject) and visit the WePod project website: https://www.wepodproject.eu/welcome  Credits:  Hosted and written by Javi Caminero  Sound design by Manu Tomillo  Coordinator: Alexander Damiano Ricci  Executive producer: Ana Ribera  This project has received funding from CROSS-Sectoral of the Creative Europe Programme. 

At WePod we don't just make podcasts. We are trying to make this project important for the podcast industry in Europe at all levels. Therefore, on our website (wepodproject.eu) you can find different tools and resources that aim to fulfil the main goal of WePod, but from a different perspective: to make the podcast industry in Europe grow even bigger.   Javi Caminero is joined by Luciana del Castillo, Account Manager for PRISA at Hiberus, WePod’s technology partner, to find out more about this other side of the WePod project. Listen to Luciana’s recommendation:  No es el fin del mundo: https://open.spotify.com/show/5dbvpKwtqz3X3hcX1BSEzf?si=d912dacfbf304776   Follow us on all our socials (@wepodproject) and visit the WePod project website: https://www.wepodproject.eu/welcome  Credits:  Hosted and written by Javi Caminero  Sound design by Manu Tomillo  Coordinator: Alexander Damiano Ricci  Executive producer: Ana Ribera  This project has received funding from CROSS-Sectoral of the Creative Europe Programme.

The first co-production of the WePod project, ‘Sea of Rage’ (‘Mar de Rabia’ in Spanish and ‘Mare di Rabbia’ in Italian), was released this past 4th of October. 'Sea of Rage’ is the story of Barbate and Gioia Tauro, two towns that stand up and say enough is enough to confront drug trafficking. A story of silences, dignity and contained rage. Javi Caminero talks to Manu Tomillo and Francesca Berardi about the research they have conducted in this co-production.  Listen to Francesca’s and Manu’s recommendations:  In viaggio non pregare: https://open.spotify.com/show/1kfA3Mpv9hjbjJh4Kfm8Lk   El gran apagón: https://open.spotify.com/show/38MOBYLmy5usYZDQtrgUYn   Visit the WePod project website: https://www.wepodproject.eu/welcome  Credits:  Hosted and written by Javi Caminero  Sound design by Manu Tomillo  Coordinator: Alexander Damiano Ricci  Executive producer: Ana Ribera  This project has received funding from CROSS-Sectoral of the Creative Europe Programme.
