Podcasting is often thought of as a vessel for storytelling. It can also work to amplify the voices of communities that have historically been suppressed. 

This past September, the CPI was a sponsor for the first-ever PodSummit YYC. The two-day event brought podcasters from across the country to downtown Calgary. They shared stories of innovation and inspiration, while exploring the future of Canadian podcasting.

The CPI’s Brad Clark hosted a panel discussion bringing together Alberta-based podcasters who share the stories of marginalized communities mainstream media often overlooks.

By sharing their experiences and insights, they explored their challenges and successes, and how podcasting can be a force for change.
