- Serial ends its third season today.
- Pocket Casts rolls out its first update after being acquired by a consortium of public radio organization. Honestly, I really like the new digs. Generally speaking, I spread my listening out across four different apps — long story — and I suspect this is going to instigate an uptick in my Pocket Cast usage.
- Because I feel like I’ve been following this dude’s work fairly closely: Nick DePrey, a super-smart product and analytics guy at NPR, is moving to WBEZ, where he will become the Director of Product Management.
- Loved this profile of Karina Longworth on The Atlantic.
