It was so great to talk to @MaeveMCC about the Butternutters series @PatLohmann and I did! She is an amazing interviewer and producer.
NEW: @PatLohmann was relaxing outside his apartment when a guy he knew started telling him the strangest story. A year later, he and colleague @meisenstadtsyr published an incredible investigation - this is how they did it: pod.fo/e/11dfc6

Maeve's @TipOffPodcast is a real inside view of journalism. Worth a listen
Because podcasting can sometimes feel like putting things out into a void, I'm having a little moment of joy that @TipOffPodcast just hit 2.4m listens & racked up its 549th review. Episode 62(!) dropped today. Thank you all for listening & existing out there in the podcast ether!
