Seen and Heard in Edmonton

This week’s podcast roundup is going to start with the long ones and progress to the short ones this time around, but first, a couple of places where I’ve talked about the Alberta Podcast Network. I had a chance to be on the What It Is podcast, along with Eva Foote and Mari Chartier. And I was on stage with Ben Yendall and Trina Shessel talking about podcast communities.

You can hear more about the network at our next Edmonton Podcasting Meetup on May 28 at Variant Edition. OK, that’s enough of me. Let’s go to the movies.

45 to 60 minutes: On Hockey Feels, Steven and Rachel are really happy that the Nashville Predators are going the Stanley Cup finals; on Start the Music, Kat talks to a couple of musicians from the Ludovico Treatment; and on Write Reads, Kirt and Tania mark their 50th episode with a discussion of Brown by Kamal Al-Solaylee.

Less than 15 minutes: The Capital City Records podcast shares a couple of recommended tracks from Carrie Day and Lyra Brown; and on Surgery 101, learn everything you didn’t know you wanted to know about flexor tenosynovitis.
