    Episode 020 - Podcast within a Podcast

    This week we bring you what you might call a podcast within a podcast – a podcast created for the Sound Design course student Shelby Hagerdon.  Shelby is majoring in History at Wayne State with minors in Geospatial Technology, Political Science, and Digital Film Production.  The Sound design course is part of that third minor and addresses the wide range of audio production needed in today’s media environment, including for conventional radio, sound for film production, and podcasting. For one of her assignments, Shelby created three episodes of a podcast she calls Gilded Cast…discussing and re-enacting historical events and situations from the Guilded Age.  In this pilot episode we’ll hear a recreated dialog of rival inventors Thomas Edison and Nikoli Tesla.

    Episode 017 - New Cooperative Education Program

    This Week on “Postcards from Wayne State” a press conference about the “Northeast Nebraska Growing Together” initiative… a major new four-year scholarship and cooperative education program at Wayne State…created in cooperation with the Aksarben Foundation and the Norfolk business community. The President of the Aksarben Foundation Sandra Reding and Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts were present for the announcement, both of whom you’ll hear. One note – we weren’t able to be there in person to record the event with our own equipment, so we are borrowing the audio from other media that covered the event, with permission.  About half-way through the event, the audio starts picking up distortion, which we aren’t able to filter out.  We apologize for this, but we think the “Northeast Nebraska Growing Together” initiative is important enough to present the full audio.
