The SpokenWeb Podcast is back for another season as we continue our quest to uncover “what literature sounds like.”
With a whole new line-up of episodes created by researchers across the SpokenWeb network, we’ll explore the sounds of translation, the act of uncertain listening, audio pedagogy, the intersection of computing, voice, and poetics, and much much more.
Our fearless host Katherine McLeod is back and will be joined by Hannah McGregor, host of Seasons 1-3. Welcome back Hannah!
We have something for everyone curious about the affordances of literature, sound, history, and the amorphous “archive,” so join us for monthly episodes of innovative audio scholarship.
Subscribe to The SpokenWeb Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you find your podcasts. And don’t forget to rate us and send us a shout! Cheers to Season 5 ~

(00:29) Katherine McLeod We dove deeper into the sounds of data.
(00:32) Adegbola How much more a role will language play in the information age?
(00:36) Katherine McLeod We asked, what is sound design?
(00:40) Miranda Text, forms, travel, forms constrained, various forms overlap and intersect.
(00:46) Katherine McLeod We explored the impact of recording technology on how poetry finds its audiences.
(00:53) Fred Wah In those days, that was really a surprise to be able to hear the voice of a poet who you had been reading off the page.
(01:01) Katherine McLeod We considered the stakes of inviting audiobooks into the literary classroom.
(01:06) Jentery We might want to, for good reason, debunk the idea that listening is cheating or that, you know, books are not meant to be listened to.
(01:12) Katherine McLeod And we heard what libraries actually sound like.
(01:15) Dan Hackborn Like [Dan makes a nasally “wah” sound with his mouth] and like a [Dan makes a continuous “thunk” sound with his mouth].
(01:20) Katherine McLeod Oh, and we also went to talk therapy. [Percussion music ends abruptly]
(01:25) Phone Voice 2 Okay, well, why don’t you start by telling me how long you’ve been feeling this way.
(01:30) Katherine McLeod [Percussion music begins again] My name is Katherine McLeod and I’m the voice behind Shortcuts on the SpokenWeb podcast feed. And I’ve been the solo host of the SpokenWeb podcast for this past season. This season I’ll be joined by Hannah McGregor, who is back. Yes, you might recognize her voice as the host of seasons one through three. Welcome back, Hannah.
(01:51) Hannah McGregor Thank you, Katherine. It’s great to be back. And I am so excited to co-host season five with you and to work with our new production team: supervising producer Maia Harris, sound designer James Healey, and returning transcriber Zoe Mix.
