It’s been now more than four months since we began this adventure. Many of our cross-border productions are already underway and we are lucky enough to see them unfold and grow. Our colleagues of the University Roma Tre are playing a crucial role documenting everything related with the WePod Project and the process of every coproduction. In this episode, Javi Caminero is joined by Marta Perrotta, professor and investigator at he University Roma Tre.

Even though our professional and personal goals keep us busy, it seems as there’s always room for more. We usually feel the need to be well-informed, for example. That’s why listening to a format like daily news podcasts can be helpful. In this episode, Javi Caminero is joined by Ana Fuentes, host of Hoy En El País, Spain’s biggest daily news podcast, to analyze the importance of this genre. 

Finding a new podcast to listen can be a challenging task. To discuss which are the best ways to discover new podcasts, Javi Caminero is joined by Andrea de Cesco, Director of Chora Academy at Chora Media, our italian partner in the WePod project, and founder of ‘Questioni d’orecchio’, the first italian newsletter dedicated to podcasts.
