Podcast News - with Lemonada Media

Founded in 2019 by Jessica Cordova Kramer and Stephanie Wittels Wachs, Lemonada is an award-winning, independent, audio-first podcast network, with a mission to make life suck less.

From Lemonada Media: Tune into New Day ▸, now available three times a week! On Mondays and Wednesdays, therapist and grief expert Claire Bidwell Smith shares actions you can implement to make meaningful changes in your life and also answers your questions. And on Fridays, she’ll interview a thought-provoking guest.

Stories of the materials used in making art are often as thought-provoking and illuminating as the objects themselves. From The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Immaterial ▸ examines the materials of art and what they can reveal about history and humanity. Each episode looks at a single material: paper, clay, jade, shells, and others, exploring the qualities and meanings that are often overlooked. It’s produced by Magnificent Noise.

The Art of Longevity ▸ is returning for a new season. The well-reviewed show features informal, in-depth conversations with celebrated music industry icons and established, respected artists, and is hosted by music industry veteran Keith Jopling.
