Episode 108: The Craft of the Literary Podcast Interview
Last month, I was scheduled to moderate a panel at the annual AWP Conference called \u201cThe Craft of the Literary Podcast Interview,\u201d featuring Rachel Zucker of Commonplace, Dujie Tahat of The Poet Salon, and David Naimon of Between the Covers, three of my favorite literary podcasts. Due to the coronavirus, we ended up having to cancel our appearance at the conference, which makes it all the sweeter to be able to bring you this podcast version of our panel. In this wide-ranging coversation, Rachel, Dujie, David, and I talked all about the \u201chow\u201ds and the \u201cwhys\u201d of interviewing, including the importance of establishing rapport with our guests, questions about the ethics of interviewing, and what the role of the host ought to be.
(Conversation recorded March 27, 2020.)
