Curiosity Aroused Public Radio Pilot

John Huntington — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 17:00:00 +0000

My friend Rebecca Watson overwhelmingly won the public voting for the Public Radio Talent Quest back in September of 2007. Because of the public support, she was one of three winners of the contest, and winning meant that she got a producer and $10,000 to make an hour-long pilot! You can listen to a preview or the entire episode (free sign up required) here, and find more info here.

Rebecca did a fantastic job on the whole thing! I'm really proud of her and the whole piece, which I edited and mixed it on my computer in Adobe Audition.
