“We’re all here for the same reason.” The hosts of the podcast, Nikita Gale and Alexander Provan, ask who we are—and what we can do—as listeners, members of an audience, and bodies in concert (or in conflict). They introduce Medium Rotation by speaking about the revelation of arena concerts, the performance of listening by CEOs and self-help gurus, and how the demand to be heard manifests in protest and property violence.
