Grow Kinder podcast
David served as a producer & editor for a mini-season of the Grow Kinder Podcast for education non-profit, Committee for Children. When David was brought in, Grow Kinder was similar to many podcasts from non-profit organizations. Each episode was a long conversation with an intro song added to the beginning and then published as a podcast.
David worked with the hosts and guests to craft a narrative around each episode to ensure there was a clear takeaway from each interview. He added a scripted intro and host-inserts to help drive home key points, and added storytelling elements to help guide listeners through each episode. Listen to a few below.
