News and Notes

Casey mentioned that Binge Mode, a podcast on The Ringer website, is deconstructing the plot mechanics of the entire Harry Potter series of novels, starting with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Binge Mode has recently given this treatment to Game of Thrones, Solo, and other recent films.

Glenda said that two complete podcasting suites will be given away during this Saturday’s SCWA meeting featuring Mark Sevi. This includes a USB audio interface, mixer, microphone, headphones, professional audio software (downloadable) and more.
