Shownotes Transcript
This week I have a conversation with award-winning storyteller and audio producer Megan Tan. You may know Megan (like I do) from her first audio series from 2014—a wildly successful documentary/memoir show with Radiotopia called Millennial. I’ve always admired her unique style of storytelling, and since Millennial she has gone on to produce shows and episodes for Gimlet Media’s The Habitat, TED, WNYC’s Radiolab,All Things Considered, Pineapple Street Media, and more. In 2020, Megan was named Producer of the Year by Adweek. An episode she made of the podcast *WILD *(which featured Megan’s personal story) about love during the pandemic) is my favorite of her recent work, so we began this conversation talking about love and dating in the pandemic.
Then, we get into how her career has transitioned and talk about her most recent podcast, Snooze), a documentary-style show about tackling the things people put off – including something big that Megan’s been snoozing on herself. I love it—I listened to it all in one day getting ready for this conversation with Megan. I felt particularly inspired after our conversation and learned a lot from Megan’s bits of wisdom from her experience and her Buddhist faith. I hope it has that uplifting quality for you, too, whenever you listen.
