“This Is TV Now” is a new podcast from Good Tape hosted by industry insider Dane Cardiel and industry outsider Stella Young. At a time when many media workers question their place in a video-first environment, “This Is TV Now” will remove the corporate spin and self-fulfilling narratives to reveal what many of us in podcasting feel deeply: No one actually knows what they’re doing. “This Is TV Now” will invite guests with experience and knowledge of podcasting's impact on culture and ask whether this medium can be solidified within the broader entertainment ecosystem. While the meta-narrative of our industry tends to be in the hands of executives and business leaders who are several steps removed from the cultural production of podcasts, “This Is TV Now” will focus its lens on the people who make this medium one to follow: hosts, showrunners, producers, and the occasional creative executive. You can follow us on all platforms at @thisistvnow; subscribe to us on YouTube; and become a monthly subscriber of Good Tape to support our independent podcast journalism. “This Is TV Now” is coproduced by Good Tape Studio and Tiny Legends Productions; mixed and edited by Fred Muñoz; engineered by Thomas Ouellette; artwork designed by Sami Wittwer for Good Tape Studio with photography by Maggie Shannon; trailer and clips design by Andrew Callaway.— —See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
