Hello all
We, at the MeCCSA Radio Studies Network are helping circulate this call for a new Editor at the fantastic online resource: RadioDoc Review.

This open access journal Radiodoc Review was founded in 2013 to develop informed critical analysis of crafted audio storytelling works and audio features. Uniquely, its international editorial board comprises both eminent scholars in audio/podcasting studies and top industry professionals, who collaborate to select works for review, contribute critiques and nominate other eminent persons to review a work. We have published some 230,000 words of expert critical analysis of the audio storytelling/feature form and our articles and associated canon of audio works are set texts in universities around the world.​ After six years as founding editor, Siobhan McHugh is standing aside.

The Expression of Interest form for a new Editor, RadioDoc Review, 2020-2022, due 31 Jan 2020, is here:

FYI: In the latest issue:​
Jeanti St Clair reviews an innovative geo-locative work about a sexual assault trial, Consent: Walk the Walk, by Canadian producer Chris Brookes in collaboration with Emily Deming; 
The investigative US podcast In the Dark S2 is critiqued by award-winning producer Sharon Davis. Curtis Flowers, its subject, has been tried six times for the same crime - he recently had his first Christmas at home in 23 years and the prosecutor has this week recused himself. The podcast revealed how black jurors had been systematically excluded.
Tara and George, about a homeless couple in London, earns praise from award-winning producer Hamish Sewell, who unpacks the delicate line walked by producer Audrey Gillan on subjectivity
From Australia, No Feeling is Final is commended for its engaging treatment of a difficult topic, the host's own mental illness, though reviewer Britta Jorgensen finds some questions unanswered.
From Bogotá, Charlotte De Beauvoir analyses the structure of Gimlet's The Habitat, noting how its episodic format informs its storytelling impact and character development.
Hugh Levinson, Head of BBC Radio Current Affairs, brings a mostly enthusiastic gaze to bear on Have You Heard George's Podcast, a true original from a young Ugandan-British voice, George Mpanga.

Thank you for reading, if you got this far. And please do forward to friends and colleagues.

Best wishes
