SPJ Freelance Community Webinar: Putting Your Print Foot into the Podcasting World

Today’s media job market is all about the pivot. So how do you put your print foot into the podcasting world?
That’s what we explore with a panel of experts who’ve made the leap from print to podcasting, and in some cases, back to print. How do you jump into podcasting? How is producing or writing for a podcast different from writing for print? Where do you learn that? How do you get podcast ideas funded?
