This summer, I taught 25 UC Santa Cruz students podcasting. They’d never tried anything like it, but dove in feet first. The assignment was to come up with a topic about a local cultural practice or person, and produce a 7-8 minute audio story as a group. Here we hear their short audio stories, collected during their six-week study abroad in the small coastal town of Dingle, Ireland, in County Kerry. It’s a place rich in music, where Irish is the spoken language and sheep outnumber the people. They interviewed locals about set dancing, Irish identity, poetry, myths and food. Though none had ever done a podcast before, they braved the wilds of digital editing and interviewing to come up with some great stories.
