Today we're returning to our News Bites series which spotlights the work of staff and students at the Centre for Advancing Journalism. 

This week’s guest is podcaster, PhD candidate, and former journalism student Dylan Bird. You might recognise his voice from Triple R’s Future Perfect program, which Dylan hosts. He also works behind the scenes on the CAJ podcast Masterclass.  

On top of this, he’s currently completing a PhD about how podcasts can maintain democracy. 

He spoke to senior tutor Bernadette Nunn about producing audio stories, hosting live radio, and the political potential of podcasting.
