https://thinkmacro.org/series/default-podcast/ InfoNation is a podcasting series produced by Dmitry Epstein's students at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Each semester groups of students study a topic related to the governance of communication, information, and the internet. Their goal is to learn about an ongoing policy debate, controversy or just a very interesting question on topics ranging from the ecological effects of submarine cables, through the right to be forgotten, to computer use by children, participation in the sharing economy, and concerns about privacy, copyright, and surveillance. The students produce a podcast where they unpack those puzzles and use peer-reviewed research in order to question assumptions or misconceptions about those topics. In the process, they read, talk to experts, talk to their peers, and tackle the challenge of communicating complex policy and science ideas to the public. For most students this is the first time engaging with both policy issues and podcast production, which makes for an exciting journey and refreshing insights. Right now, new episodes are added at the end of the semester.
