PRPD - Public Radio Program Directors Association

Talk Show Webinar Series
PRPD and the NPR Local News Initiative presented three webinars in the last month covering essential aspects of Talk Show programming. They were based on The Public Radio Talk Show Handbook, public radio’s comprehensive online guide to creating and producing local news/information/talk programming. The Handbook identifies a broad array of best practices and tools to help stations deliver high quality local shows on a consistent basis.

Webinar recordings:
- Using the Talk Show Handbook
- Building the Machine: Talk Show Systems and Tools
  Susan Davis, Senior Producer of WUNC, The State of Things
- Talk Shows: Globalizing Topics and Sense of Place
- Pulling Together:Full Station Editorial Integration
