Audio is intimate. I’m being quite literal when I say that there is no way to get closer to someone than with audio. If you’re listening to my voice on headphones, as most podcast listeners do, try to locate my voice in 3D space around you… and you’ll fail. Because my voice isn’t coming from around you. It’s coming from the very centre of your skull. See? Isn’t that wild? That’s what I mean when I say audio is an intimate medium that brings you closer to your audience than anything else; who else gets to whisper in your ear like this? And that’s not all we can do with audio. I can catch your attention over here [fx] or I can even have a conversation with myself in stereo space, can’t I, Chris? Yes, Chris, you can. Wow, Chris, that’s so cool! I know, Chris! Audio is fun, audio is intimate, audio is powerful. We’re Message Heard, and we make podcasts with purpose.
