Why create a podcast for a magazine? This week Katherine and Tobias talk about the choices they have to make when producing a podcast (do we even know how we want our podcast to go?). First, they talk to the founder of The New Inquiry, and the program that hosts BackMatter magazine, Rachel Rosenfelt, who answers the question: Is it possible to create a publication through the power of collective belief? Plus, BackMatter EIC Madeline Janz shares how she stepped into the role of "big boss" of a team producing a new publication in just four months. Interested in starting your own podcast? Tune in!

This is a podcast about the making of the publication BackMatter, an annual print magazine created by graduate students at The New School, ourselves included, in the city of New York.
