PhDCasting aims to be research through podcasting practice. Jerry Padfield documents his personal reflections of a journey through a PhD at Falmouth University, researching #podcasting and #CommunityRadio practice for wellbeing. The podcast talks about the experience of completing a PhD, from the perspective of a research student: the milestones, the emotional highs and lows, and also becomes a research tool in itself, interrogating the embodied knowledge within the practice. Each episode also features a conversation with a practitioner discussing issues around podcasting and broadcasting.

Quarter Ten: Jan 2021 – Mar 2021

A period of extreme business, Covid delays and possible funding extensions. In common with most of the academic world at this time I’m snowed under with work. In a period of reflection I decided to interview myself about my experiences during the PhD and the point at where I am in my practice.
