Borah Pridecast

Welcome to Season 6 of the Pridecast. This season opener introduces a new podcast in the Pridecast family.

"Borah Voices" is totally student-produced and hosted, offering a focused look at student life at Borah High School. In this opening episode, Camille and Sloane offer listeners "Will You Cringe?" and interviews with seniors who talk about their cool parking space designs. Drobny offers his picks for the Best Root Beer Blind Taste Test; there's "Star Stories" and movie reviews, too! Be sure to hit the subscribe button! As always, these are Borah voices!

Carlos and Miles talk some shop, Tommy talks to band kids, an interview with Borah Tennis Coach, Mr. Stafford, and the Borah Debaters talk really fast and will argue about anything! These are Borah Voices!

Episode 27 is this year's first fully student-produced podcast. Senior Co-hosts Carlos and Miles and their bevy of student correspondents report in on the first semester happenings at Borah High School. Interviews, movie reviews, and student-on-the-street Homecoming questions. These are Borah voices.

Well, it's October at Borah (it's October everywhere, probably), and our seniors are starting to get the College itch. Time to start thinking FAFSA, letters of rec requests(we hear plying a certain English teacher with a bottle or two of strawberry milk will greatly improve that recommendation letter!), and making that list of potential schools. In this episode, Ethan chats up Borah's College and Career counselor, Jenni Kimball, and Santiago sits down with the College of Western Idaho's Latinx Student Services Coordinator, Javier Garcia. Some great advice in this episode for any students thinking about their future after high school. These are Borah Voices!

Here comes season 5 of the Borah Pridecast! We have new hosts, new segments, and, just like Episode 4 of Star Wars: A New Hope. What is it? You'll have to subscribe to find out! These are Borah Voices.

On Saturday, February 1, 2020 Jad Abumrad, host of Radio Lab and Dolly Parton’s America podcast series, visited the Borah High School library in Boise. For over an hour, in a library jammed with eager students, Jad graciously sat for an interview with Borah Pridecast student host, Ellie Smith (graduating class of 2020!). A few weeks later, the COVID-19 pandemic surged, and the school year went virtual; the Pridecast studio was shuttered for the next 14 months.

So, for Episode #25, the Pridecast team offers its listeners that full interview – made possible with some generous help from the The Cabin, Idaho’s literary arts nonprofit organization, and the podcast team for Boise State Public Radio News’ “You Know the Place” podcast. Thanks for listening. These are Borah Voices!

After 10 months out of the studio at Borah High School, the Borah Pridecast team is back! In February of 2020, Jad Abumrad -- host of Radio Lab and Dolly Parton's America -- stopped by Borah to meet and talk to our Podcast club. Our (now graduated) Ellie Smith interviewed Jad for over an hour, and you will get to hear that full interview when Episode #25 of the Borah Pridecast drops in a day or two. Give it a listen! THESE ARE BORAH VOICES!

School in the time of Coronavirus. We interview some students about their day-to-day lives during the pandemic. Borah's social worker, Becky Woodland walks us through the help available to students during this closure -- plus some "Price is Right" memories on the Pandemic Period Cold Call. And Borah staff and students look toward a different kind of graduation this year. From bedrooms and back porches, these are Borah voices.

We're sequestered but not silenced! The Borah Pridecast team -- while social distancing -- is putting together the next episode of the Borah Pridecast. Interviews, day-in-the-life stories, and a special Pandemic Period Cold Call. Stay tuned! These are Borah Voices!

Cupid has already stashed his love bow and arrows, but love is timeless and eternal (so they say), and this episode is devoted to that butterflies in the stomach, why haven't they texted, dumbstruck love feeling we all hold dear. Love 101 stories, interviews with our forever-alones, couples, and everything in-between.. Enjoy!
