b'First off, we hope each and every one of you are staying safe, washing your hands, and keeping somewhat sane during the Coronavirus outbreak of 2020. We are holding steady and continuing to record the podcast (remotely \\u2026 so basically we don\\u2019t see each other except on computer screens, but thankfully technology has come in handy). We recorded this one on March 10th before things really went down and USC became a remote campus (we miss the Media Center, but it is necessary for our team to stay away). This week we bring you a special episode about The Peabody Awards! Henry has been a juror since 2013 and invited several of his fellow \\u201cPeabuddies\\u201d to USC for a discussion about the importance of the awards and how they are different from the Emmy, Grammy or Academy Awards. Henry\\u2019s \\u201cPeabuddies\\u201d are Jeffrey P. Jones, the Director of the Peabody Awards, Marcy Carsey, longtime television producer of shows like Roseanne and That 70\\u2019s Show, and Lorraine Ali, TV, Culture, and Media Critic at the LA Times. Henry and Colin dive deep into the gravitas of the awards which recognize \\u201cstories that matter\\u201d through a mix of artistic achievement and social impact. Listen in as Henry, Colin and the rest of the \\u201cPeabuddies\\u201d consider how race, industry backgrounds, and diversity of the judges can have an impact on The Peabody Awards. They talk about how TV can pivot faster towards cultural movements which has created an exciting \\u201cfirehose\\u201d of content.
