Creating a podcast that speaks to and from their research can help academics broaden their impact and refine their unique scholarly voice. In this workshop Alyssa and Brendane, the PhD candidates behind Zora’s Daughters podcast, will help participants turn their scholarly interests into an idea for a widely accessible podcast.
This 90 minute workshop will cover:
- How podcasts are useful for boosting your scholarly and public profile
- Choosing a topic and developing a podcast around it
- Finding your Why
- Identifying your audience

Alyssa A.L. James is a PhD candidate in the Department of Anthropology at Columbia University. She is a 2020 SSHRC Doctoral Fellow whose research examines the consequences of recasting colonial history for Caribbean subjectivities and futures. She interrogates the discourses and practices that transform commodities into heritage – and history into commodity – as it unfolds through Martinique’s nascent coffee revival project. In her free time, you’ll find Alyssa dancing, travelling, and writing about it.
Brendane Tynes is a PhD candidate in the Department of Anthropology at Columbia University. She is a 2018 Ford Foundation Predoctoral Fellow whose research centers the affective experiences of Black people in the Movement for Black Lives. Her research stands at the intersections of affect theory, Anthropology, and Black Studies with a particular emphasis on Black feminist anthropological theory and praxis. In her free time, Brendane enjoys writing poetry and dancing.
