Welcome to Story Insider 📖 A new series of found long reads, unheard interviews, and curated analysis from The Storymakers Institute.
This week, say hello to longtime American radio and podcast maker and editor, Julia Barton. Julia is one founder of Pushkin Industries who's worked with Malcolm Gladwell, Michael Lewis, Tim Harford, Jill Lepore and others, to develop their narrative shows - and I had the absolute joy of working with Julia on one of my ABC audio documentaries, some years ago.
As a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University, Julia has been investigating the history of radio and podcasting from the very beginning to today. I sit down with her to tackle this monster piece of research: where do we even begin? With the sinking of the Titanic.
