Please welcome to our show a voice you know well, award-winning newscaster @DebraMark from @KFIam640's @JohnKobyltShow, joining us today not to tell someone else's story, but her own. It's a very personal story, one she wants to share for #SuicidePreventionMonth. Most of us who know Debra would describe her as cheerful and always positive. She grew up in the Valley, her parents divorced when she was young, and she worked hard to make it in the news business. She is also married with two grown children. But twenty years ago, her life came to a hault when she got an email from her mother, saying Debra and everyone in the family would be better off without her. That was the last time she ever heard from her mom. In fact, it was Debra who found her mother. The story she tells is terribly sad and tragic, because no one saw it coming. So she wants to shine a spotlight on this serious mental health issue for anyone else out there going through something similar, or thinking about it. Please join us on this special addition of #DeborahKobyltLIVE on all video and audio podcast platforms. And invite any family and friends, too. I'm your host, #deborahzarakobylt , and I'm honored to have you with us  @debra.mark #Radio #KFIAM640 #podcast @ubngo

I literally cannot imagine anyone else being able to do what Chris did with my litany of different characters and their various accents.

From the political battlegrounds to the fictional realms, our latest guest, Joe, exemplifies the art of reinvention. After establishing his career as a lobbyist in defense and technology, Joe found a new calling in the quieter, yet equally challenging world of fiction writing during the pandemic's unexpected pause. In today's episode, we unpack Joe's journey from drafting legislation to crafting narratives, as he shares the secrets to monetizing and marketing his four-book series and the potential of expanding his universe into video games. As writers and entrepreneurs alike know, the leap from passion to profit is no small feat. Joe's experience offers a treasure trove of insights into the business acumen required for any author looking to thrive in the competitive literary market, emphasizing the power of branding and the necessity of embracing feedback to refine one's work. Navigating the publishing labyrinth can be as complex as the plots in Joe's novels, but fear not; we're here to light the way. We dissect the elements that can make or break a book's success: from the magnetic allure of an eye-catching cover to the succinct seduction of a gripping blurb and the nuanced strategies of marketing that can propel a story from the shelves into readers' hands. For those wrestling with the decision between audiobook production, self-publishing, or traditional publishing routes, Joe and I rip the cover off the intricate web of options available to today's authors. We celebrate the collaborative spirit that binds the author community, offering a stark contrast to Joe's former political sphere—proving that sometimes, your competitor can be your greatest ally.

Mother's Day seems like it should be a Hallmark moment. But for many, reality is far different. Dana Black started her very personal podcast, I Swear on My Mother's Grave, for listeners suffering from complex mother loss — meaning not only people who have lost their mothers to death, but also, in life  by estrangement, illness, addiction, circumstance. Sensitivity warning: This conversation touches on alcoholism and addiction. Audio storytellers can learn design the tone, writing, and mood of a podcast to foster  intimacy with listeners. They can grapple with the defining the role of the podcast host. They will learn how to make guests, and listeners, feel seen, and to create a sense of belonging. We also discuss the power of scenes to convey memory, character, relationship and feelings. At the end of every episode, I give you a few of the many takeaways from these conversations. Here are today's:  We say podcasts are an intimate medium. But that's really not the case. What's true is that podcasts have the capacity to feel intimate – but it takes a clear sound vision to make that happen.  Dana has it. She thinks carefully about how she wants her listeners to feel. “Come here come here come here,” she whispers. She talks to them directly, as if they're right there. “Sit by the fire with me. Grab a cup of cocoa. Put on warm socks.” She wants them to feel they're in on a secret and so she writes, voices, and sound designs with that goal in mind.  There's no intimacy without trust. “The only way to gain the trust of someone I've never met,” Dana says, “I have to share myself, so that they will share themselves.”   There is so much power in scenes. A 45-second scene – in Dana's case, about getting American girl dolls for Christmas – we get a distillation of who her mother was. Scenes done well are beautiful shortcuts to both facts and feelings – and inevitably have listeners conjuring up memories from their own lives.  One reason listeners are hooked on I Swear on My Mother's Grave: At the end of every episode, Dana reflects on what that conversation meant to her, often in surprising ways. Listeners can't wait to find out what she'll say. Links mentioned in this episode:Mother's Grave Retreat, June 8-11, 2023I Swear on My Mother's GraveSound Judgment Ep 5: Finding Your Voice with Shelter in Place host Laura Joyce Davis***Bring lessons on hosting and producing into your inbox! Did you know Sound Judgment is also a free newsletter?

We're doing something different on this episode. Jodi and I interview each other – and discover some real similarities and big differences between voice acting & hosting. One of the biggest similarities: As hosts and voice actors, we need to communicate emotion authentically. That's where the joy and the success lies – and where many of the problems do, too. Parts 1 and 2 of this conversation with Jodi Krangle are running on Sound Judgment and also on Audio Branding. Thanks to Audio Branding editor Humberto Franco for doing beautiful work in audio and video. Follow Audio Branding here.To learn more about Jodi Krangle and connect with her, visit voiceoversandvocals.com.To watch shorts from this episode and other Audio Branding episodes, visit Jodi's Youtube channel, JodiKrangleVO. Subscribe to Sound Judgment, the Newsletter, our once- or twice-monthly newsletter that will help you make creative choices in audio storytelling.

Because of you, your favorite host may appear on Sound Judgment.For more information on Sound Judgment and Podcast Allies, our consulting, production and training company, visit us at www.podcastallies.com.How to be a great host: Jodi Krangle's takeaways1. Sound needs to change as culture changes. Remember the old movie trailers with The Voice of God? We don't hear those much any more, and for a good reason. Younger generations experience sound in a very different way – they want to be shown what's will be on the movie screen, for instance, not told to. They do not want to be sold to at all. So if we're not hearing the Voice of God from voice actors any more, we're also not wanting that newscaster, anchor voice – the Walter Cronkite voice – in journalism and podcasting, either. 2. Emotional context is what sound does for us.I was surprised to hear Jodi say, when she's recording a commercial, for instance – “If I don't have a movie or play going on in my head, it's hard for the person listening to understand the emotion that's coming across.” Storytellers, when you're using a script, this is key to avoiding sounding like you're reading. We need to embody what we're saying.  3. Hosting is strategic. We need to start treating it that way. In the advertising industry, directors often make the mistake of tacking on voiceover at the end of a production, rather than thinking about it strategically from the beginning. Many folks in Jodi's industry mistakenly believe voice acting is just standing at a mic and talking. That's my pet peeve as well.  We should be thinking about hosting – and creating an intentional sound for our shows – at the beginning of the process, not throwing in a voice at the end. Hosting well is how you engage listeners, and hosting poorly can lose them. Tune in next week for Part 2, a bonus episode.  Credits Sound Judgment is a production of Podcast Allies, LLC. Host: Elaine Appleton GrantProject Manager: Tina BassirSound Designer: Andrew ParellaIllustrator: Sarah EdgellWant to work with Elaine Appleton Grant or Podcast Allies? Visit the following for information on:Coaching  and workshops for individuals, public media, nonprofits and universitiesOnline courseProduction
