Podcast: Crime Junkie

 


    The podcast I want to talk about today is Crime Junkie, hosted by Ashley Flowers and Britt Prawat. It started in 2017 and has posted weekly on their Spotify channel or whatever you get your podcasts from. Each episode is about 30 minutes to an hour long and covers topics from murder, missing persons, and serial killers. 

It originally appealed to me back in 2018 when I was looking for a new podcast to get into. What attracted me the most was that the episode format was organized, and as hosts, they got straight to the point. What turned me off about other true crime podcasts was that they talked a lot about other things before getting to the point of the podcast, and they seemed disorganized. 

It makes sense for them to create their podcast because it's a perfect format for what they discuss. While the stories are gory and hard to stomach, I appreciate that through the podcast, I only have to listen to them, versus having to watch them. Since creating the podcast, they have other social media platforms, such as Instagram, and even now host their YouTube channel.

Inside the Media Room at Tourism Whistler

There are some differences between traditional news releases and those found on Tourism Whistler's Media room. For one, while exploring their news releases, I found they are short and to the point. In a fast-moving digital world, traditional news releases often struggle to keep up with modern storytelling and how to keep it dynamic by offering an all-in-one resource hub.  Tourism Whistler’s media room is thoughtfully designed for those who are journalists, content creators, or maybe just curious travelers. Instead of a single sheet of facts and quotes, it offers high-resolution media assets like videos for press trips and local contacts. It's not just a place for information — it's a platform for inspiration. Whistler is different because it encourages deeper exploration by packaging stories visually and contextually, which is helpful to media outlets that are inspired by today's visually driven audiences.

If It Feels Like an Ad, You’re Doing It Wrong

Image
In this video for Dove, we are in a teen's room as she's browsing on her phone, looking at models and influencers on social media. There are no titles, no words, no one trying to sell you anything. You discover that the original photo she posted wasn't a model or celebrity; it was her, completely done up and unrecognizable. As the video progresses, she's going back in time; removing makeup, editing herself to look more "real" as she's trying to capture a selfie of herself. Her lips get smaller, her hair gets frizzier, and she's showing every blemish and scar. The ending shows us a normal young girl, but the ad does not feel like an ad because it takes you in by simply following her journey. It's only at the very end that a message pops up: The ad is well-done because instead of pushing a product or brand, it taps into a real, emotional truth—something its audience deeply relates to. With this subtle, narrative-driven approach, it tells a story and ...
