Welcome to the park! Trailer Park: The Podcast Trailer Podcast is a podcast that showcases podcast trailers. Whether those trailers never became fully-realized podcasts, were made as creative proof, are part of a larger body of work, or were created just for fun, they're welcome here at the park!

On each episode, hosts Arielle Nissenblatt and Tim Villegas will hit 'play' on a podcast trailer. We'll then hear from the creator of that trailer.

Why a trailer park?

As a podcast discovery tool
To help creators get their projects funded
To create learning opportunities for audio creators


Thank you to our season one sponsors: Ausha, Recast Studio, Focusrite's Vocaster, mowMedia, and Aug X Labs.

    Narrative Podcasting: How did Grant Hill make "Serum" with WHYY's The Pulse?

    Trailer Park co-host Tim Villegas interviews Grant Hill about his limited series "Serum" from WHYY's The Pulse and Local Trance Media. Last season on TPP, we featured the trailer for "Serum," and Tim loved it so much that he wanted to chat with Grant about what went into making the entire series.



    About "Serum"

    A Black doctor, a potential cure for AIDS, and the quest to find out what happened to it.



    Listen for:


    A discussion on budgeting for long-form narrative podcasts
    How the show was reported
    How the idea for the show was shaped
    What support Grant and his team got from WHYY
    What makes narrative podcasting different from chat shows or other formats

    Introducing "Podcast 360" from The Podcast Academy

    Introducing "Podcast 360" from The Podcast Academy

    Are you familiar with the Podcast Academy? Well, you're about to get familiar! Their mission is to support podcast makers and advance the cultural merit of the medium. Through programs such as The Ambies, mentorships, trainings, and more, the Podcast Academy celebrates, connections, and inspires creators around the world, while attracting new audiences to their work.

    Here's what the show is about:

    What does a podcast production company do? How does a podcast generate revenue? Where is the industry headed? These are just a few of the questions that podcast founders and experts are answering in a new show from The Podcast Academy and DCP Entertainment — Podcast 360, where you’ll get a 360-degree view on what it takes to build something that lasts in the podcast industry. Each week, company founders and podcast experts will sit in the hot seat and answer three questions about all things podcasting, like content production, building a successful brand, sales and marketing, or founding a podcast-based business. The challenge is that they’ll have just sixty seconds to answer.  The next week, the guest becomes the host, turning the mic on another industry colleague, creating a daisy chain of knowledge and perspective. We’ll also uncover fun and surprising facts about our guests through a game of two truths and a lie.

Great for humans!

I’m so happy I found this show. I’m a podcaster myself, so the advice from these two experts is invaluable. But I’m also just a human who’s an avid podcast listener, interested in a wide range of topics. This show is the best discovery tool out there. The hosts are funny and smart and the production is entertaining! Great job! I’m so thankful you’re creating this show!

An Excellent Idea. Really Well Executed!

This is not your typical trailer park podcast! Arielle and Tom keep it fun and light, while calling attention to the real benefits of a well conceived podcast trailer. If you produce your own podcast, or are even thinking about it, follow along to discover how a simple podcast trailer can help you set the stage, create awareness, and position you as the go-to podcaster in your category.
