Babes Know: The Podcast

 

Policy Babes was a non-profit apparel company that made amazing political clothing and donating 100% of the proceeds to a multitude of causes. I joined the ranks in late 2016 and began writing the Babes Know newsletter. This newsletter then became a short-lived podcast. Although we only produced four episodes, I learned so much about planning, recording, and editing a podcast. We were a ferocious team of two.

 

Process + Tools

  • Each week we traded off who was leading the discussion. That person would pick a topic, conduct ample research, then form an outline

  • We recorded via Anchor for sync, and Audacity individually for better sound quality

  • Then I would edit the episodes in Audacity, while my partner prepared show notes and descriptions
