Episode four- Dan Vo: The Fool and the Opera

In episode four of The podCraft I chat to Dan Vo of the Fool and the Opera. The program is a beginners guide to opera where Dan plays the fool and takes opera newbies on a journey through the seemingly inaccessible world of opera.



The show broadcasts live on JOY 94.9 on Sundays at 6pm and is edited and repackaged for podcast. Dan and his audio producer, Jed Gilbert will often include added extras for the podcast including extended interviews with guests.

I talk to Dan about how he came to love opera, how he came up with the concept for the show, and more nerdy opera facts.

All that and more in episode four of the podCraft.

Episode three- Josh Kinal, Brett Cropley and John Richards: The Boxcutters

In episode 3 of the podCraft, Jade is joined by TV aficionados Josh Kinal, Brett Cropley and John Richards of the Boxcutters podcast.

Prepare to hear one of the most rambled pre interviews known to man, left in for your listening pleasure. We talk everything from that age old gem, ‘What’s wrong with Aussie TV,’ through to the large number of Boxcutters fans that seem to hovering around the JOY studios.

Episode two- Jesse Thorn: The Sound of Young America

For two episodes in a row I’ve had to overcome my starstruck-ness first with the fantastic Josh Rosenzweig, and now in episode 2 with the awesome Jesse Thorn. Jesse is the host of The Sound of Young America, and one half of Jordan, Jesse Go!

America's radio sweetheart, Jesse Thorn

In this episode of the podCraft I talk to Jesse about his podcasts, the live shows, his guests of varying degrees of fame, and most importantly Arj Barker’s insane amount of fame in Australia.

So check it out now.

Episode one- Josh Rosenzweig: Here! with Josh and Sara

Josh Rosenzweig is known for his podcast through the Here! Network. Each week he, and his recently departed co-host Sara, talk to prominent members of the GLBTI community, there’s actors, performers, activists and more.

He also has the very impressive and intimidating sounding title, Senior Vice President of Integrated Marketing and Public Relations for Here!

His podcast is one of my favourites and my star struck awe is evident here in episode one of the podCraft.
