This year, Tribeca received a record-breaking number of audio storytelling submissions from talented creators worldwide. “In a risk-averse media environment and transformative period for the podcast industry, it is independent creators—and networks that champion their creative autonomy—who are making truly original audio,” said Tribeca Curator of Audio Storytelling Davy Gardner. “We’re highlighting inventive and fresh stories that are told on their own creative terms. Additionally, the program’s focus on the intersection of political activism and audio storytelling pays homage to the enduring legacy of activist, mentor, and dear friend, Paula Weinstein.” – By Gregg W.
