The Magic of Podcasting: Storytelling with a Twist

Audio is a medium that allows telling stories in an impactful, intimate way. Meet the creators behind four of Hong Kong’s most popular podcasts in a unique panel about podcasting as an alternative approach to storytelling. How do these Podcasters approach their subjects, how do they tackle sensitive topics like (mental) health, resilience, and belonging as they are setting out to make a positive impact on their audience in Hong Kong and beyond? What are the hurdles and setbacks? What are the (unexpected) rewards? Moderated by #impact Podcast host Regina Larko with panelists Cissy Radford (In The Changing Room), Emery Fung (Awkward Turtle At Work), and the team of KELY Support Group (This Hong Kong Life).
