Podcasting An Institute

Podcasting An Institute is a real-time experiment in building power through voice. Hosted by Hendel Leiva, the show follows an unfolding process: using a podcast to imagine, test, and potentially bring to life an Audio × Democracy Institute in public. Each episode follows the conversations and breakthroughs that surface in trying to build civic media infrastructure from the ground up without a finished blueprint. From late-night realizations to industry reckoning, to funding questions, Podcasting An Institute documents what becomes possible when audio isn’t just a medium but a starting point.
