ABSTRACT
Podcasting is a potentially powerful digital tool for engaging with a broad range of public, policy, student and professional audiences. We offer an urban studies podcast checklist as a conceptual “how to” guide for podcasting the urban. The checklist shows how each stage of the podcast production process can be thought of as an opportunity to ethically intervene into the social and political worlds of cities. We consider why we initiated our podcasts, how we express ourselves as academics, the ethics of urban podcast production, to whom we are disseminating content and the impression we believe we are making.

Notes
1. Excluding live radio audiences.
2. The evolution of podcasting is in many ways a story about technology. Podcasts are enabled by new digital audio file formats and electronic distribution algorithms such as Really Simple Syndication (RSS), but we have not explored this technological dimension of podcasting in this review.
3. We are using an “idea of the soundscape [understood as a] the collection of sounds that emanate from landscapes” (Pijanowski et al. Citation2011, p. 1).
