*The Radio Journal: International Studies in Radio and Audio Media* *CALL FOR PAPERS* *Volume 14:1 **northern spring 2016* *SPECIAL SECTION ON PODCASTING**.* Digital platforms have transformed the world of radio, no single technology more so than podcasting. Now an essential part of broadcast radio, as well as a thriving art form in its own right, podcasts challenge traditional radio structures, forms, genres, production methods, and listening cultures as much as they also extend and shore up the radio medium. Whereas much has been written about podcasts in online blogs and mainstream media, scholarly work about the genre and form is still emerging, as highlighted by Bonini’s (2015) recent review of the literature. *The Radio Journal* invites scholarly work exploring and investigating the podcast (r)evolution from multiple perspectives: *-- How can we understand podcasting in relation to radio?* *-- What makes an excellent podcast?* *-- What methods can we use to study podcasting?* *-- Who is producing innovative podcasting work, where and how?* *-- How are podcasts circulated and listened to?* *Deadline: 1 February 2016* *The Radio Journal *is a double blind peer reviewed journal. We look for articles that explore the production, circulation and reception of radio and creative soundwork, and encourage a wide range of international and interdisciplinary perspectives on both historical and contemporary issues in sound-based journalism and media studies.
