Third Space Indy
Podcast Description
Third Space Indy is a podcast about the people shaping Indianapolis from the ground up. Host Michael Zarick sits down with community organizers, creatives, and neighborhood leaders to explore how we build connection in an age of disconnection. Each episode highlights the work being done to reimagine a more vibrant, inclusive, and rooted future — one conversation at a time.
Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast explores themes related to community building, neighborhood dynamics, and the impact of the arts on social engagement. Episodes often highlight the efforts of local creatives, such as those from the Kan-Kan Cinema discussing unique film offerings, or artists like Megan Jefferson emphasizing the role of public art in fostering community connections.
Third Space Indy strives to connect people to their neighbors, inspire people to learn about their community, and drive action in those communities to create the lived environment those people want to exist within.
Third Space Indy is not a podcast, but an ideal to work towards in an effort to make the places we live more intertwined with the values of creating safe, comfortable, and livable spaces for everyone.

This week, for my birthday episode, I handed the mic to Patrick Armstrong, who guest-hosts the podcast. We talked about what a third space means to me now, a year and a half into the show, plus introversion, making Reels, and how I think about success. This was a moment to talk through a bit of self-reflection as I complete 2 full years in Indianapolis. I hope you enjoy.
