Radio and podcasts

Podcasts and Radio Work

RadioTEDU and TEDU ERU projects separated by role: first the podcasts Arda hosts, interviews in, or appears in; then production and coordination credits.

Podcasts I host, interview, or appear in

These are the projects where Arda is on mic, shaping the conversation directly, or publicly credited in the episode descriptions. In&Out is detailed under production because that is the primary credit.
