Podcast Description
Inspired by our monthly WPIN newsletter, this podcast aims to feature the voices and thoughts of the women in our podcast community around the world. If you identify as a woman and work or create in the podcast industry this podcast is made for you.
As women get more and more involved around the world, we are folding ourselves into the fabric of technology and media history. But there is still much to talk about and much left to be desired when it comes to diversity, and women’s voices and leadership within the space.
So let’s talk about it.
