Say Hello to Our Newest Team Members!

We are so proud to welcome new members to the Multitude team. Read on to learn more about Maddie and Aarthi, and congratulate founding member Julia on her new role.

Maddie Wasson is Multitude’s new Social Media & Marketing Manager. She will be helping us spread the word about our shows, resources, and projects in more ways than ever!

Maddie earned a Gender Studies degree from Georgetown University in May 2022, then made her way to The Big Apple and began her career in social media at Wonder Media Network. She now spends her time doing freelance social media work for a range of clients, including her newest addition — Multitude! Maddie is so excited to be working with Multitude, and admires their dedication to creating community around incredible content.

Aarthi Ganapathy is also joining as our Podcast Business Fellow, helping us with growth strategy efforts and business partnerships. 

Aarthi is a University of Washington (Seattle) grad, and an NYC-based professional with prior finance experience and an arsenal of brunch recommendations. She is excited to work on growth and partnerships at Multitude. Aarthi will be at the Yale School of Management starting fall 2023.

Julia Schifini, a founding member of Multitude and a longtime editor, producer, and assistant director of Multitude shows, is also taking on additional responsibilities as our Community Manager! Nobody knows our community better, and we’re honored to entrust her with this backbone of our business.

Julia is a historian, voice actor, sound designer, and lover of all fancy foods. She is a co-host and producer of Spirits, a co-host of Join the Party, and the Community Manager of Multitude. She loves world-building, professional wrestling, fancy cheese, and all things creepy and cool.

Podcasting is a team sport, and we could not be happier to be growing ours. Please join us in welcoming Aarthi and Maddie to the Multitude fold, and in congratulating Julia! 

It's the MultiCrew Drive!

On October 1, 2017, Amanda registered the domain name “multitude.productions.” That was the first step of launching a business where podcasters could make a sustainable living on their own terms. Six years later, we’ve built something pretty special: a resilient, independent media business that gives audio creators the tools to thrive. And we’re not stopping anytime soon. 

In the next few months, Multitude will be launching a new member show, throwing open our metaphorical doors (👀), announcing live shows in cities we’ve never performed in before, and releasing even more free resources for up-and-coming creators. And we believe 2024 will be our year. We need your help to make our future plans even bigger and better. The truth is, Multitude exists because of the support of listeners like you.

The best way you can support Multitude is joining the MultiCrew: our membership program that lets you, our listeners, help to fund new work from Multitude and get exclusive perks. That’s why, from now until October 1st, we are running the MultiCrew Drive! We’re putting TWO WEEKS ASIDE to highlight the ways your support makes a difference to us at Multitude and how that support gets paid back to you, our community!

Will you help us add 100 new and upgrading members to the MultiCrew by October 1? 

Here’s how it works:

• If you join (or rejoin) the MultiCrew, upgrade your tier, or go from a monthly plan to an annual one by October 1, you will get a brand-new “This Mug Supports Conversational Podcasts That Bring People Together” mug. (And if you're already a MultiCrew member and don't want to upgrade or go annual, you can also just buy it at the lowest price we’re allowed to sell it at.)

• All annual members will get their names inscribed forever on our We Put 2023 On Our Back Plaque which we will look at every day in the Multitude office. If you’re already a MultiCrew member on an annual plan, you’ll be on it! If you switch from monthly to annual by October 1, you’ll be on it! If you join between now and October 1, you’ll be on it too! Annual plans are particularly helpful to us, since we can count on a whole year of support instead of varying month to month. So we want to thank our annual members in particular, at every tier, with this new perk. And don’t worry, we’ll share many many photos.

We’re also donating a portion of any new revenue we raise this month to the North Brooklyn Angels, a local organization that provides free meals in our neighborhood. They started up in Greenpoint around the same time as us, and currently serve more than 1,500 meals each week to our neighbors from eight different locations. We’ll be making a donation for every new or upgrading member during the drive.

We’ll be talking about our jobs at Multitude and what it’s like making shows in 2023 on the podcasts, social media, newsletters, and more! And for all of our Multitude Community—everybody, not just MultiCrew members—we’ll be having a special virtual hangout with Multitude hosts and staff to wrap up the Drive. All you have to do is sign up for our free Discord server, then come celebrate with us! 

For as little as $5 a month, you can help support Multitude, and get exclusive audio content, including our weekly friendly debate podcast, Head Heart Gut, and our brand new monthly review podcast, The MultiCrew Review! We also offer annual plans with a special discount - get 2 months for free when you sign up for the year.

 If you’ve ever enjoyed one of our podcasts, laughed along with us at one of our jokes, looked at something a little differently after hearing an interview, made a friend through our shows, or felt more confident in yourself as a creator or a person, I hope you consider becoming a MultiCrew member.

So, 100 new and upgrading and switched-from-monthly-to-annual members. Two weeks. Many many mugs and one big ol’ plaque to engrave.

I think we can do this!

Multitude’s 2025 Pride Podcast List

Happy Pride Month! Though we are proudly queer all year, we wanted to celebrate our community and honor the history that made Pride what it is today. Especially in times like these, it’s important to recognize the incredible LGBTQ+ creators, businesses, and shows that help bring representation and culture to our world.

With that said, here is a list of some of our favorite LGBTQ+ podcasts and businesses. Plus, we had to share a few of our qu-eerie-st Spirits episodes.

LGBTQ+ Podcasts We Love

The team at Multitude’s list of essential shows from LGBTQ+ creators!

Rainbow Parenting

Rainbow Parenting, a queer-and gender-affirming parenting podcast, sparks conversations about how to affirm queer, trans, an nonbinary kids with host and educator Lindz Amer. This show is perfect for parents, educators, caregivers, librarians, and anyone who knows, loves, and works with kids!

Nancy

Hosted by BFFs Kathy Tu and Toblin Low, Nancy is a critically-acclaimed podcast featuring queer stories and conversations about how we define ourselves, and the journey it takes to get there.

Spirits Episodes to Listen to This Pride Month

Episode 35: Wonder Woman and the Amazons (with Greg Rucka)

Leave the world of men and enter Paradise with this Spirits episode and special guest Greg Rucka, head writer of Wonder Woman for DC. We discuss comic books as mythology, dig into the historical roots of Wonder Woman and the Amazons, and revel in the super queer nature of paradise.

Episode 380: Abandoned Places (with Blake Pfeil)

Have you ever been haunted by an abandoned place? Spirits hosts invlited multidisciplinary artist Blake Pfeil to talk about his experiences exploring abandoned places, how abandoned places are inherently queer, and why they haunt us the way they do.

Episode 384: Queer Monsters (with Sacha Coward)

In this episode, we dive back in time with the help of author Sacha Coward to talk about the intertwined history of queerness, monsters, and mythology!

Episode 388: Making Queer Fairy Tales (with Melanie Gillman)

Cartoonist and author of Other Ever Afters, Mel Gillman joins us on Spirits to chat about growing as an artist, how allegories of fairy tales grow over time, and breaking the structures to write good horror.

LGBTQ+ Businesses We Love

gc2b

gc2b is a trans-owned, affirming apparel company based in Maryland. The founder, CEO, and designer—a Black and Latinx trans man—saw that the only binding options available were uncomfortable compression shirts made for cis men and started gc2b to combat that. 

GFW Clothing

GFW Clothing’s button-up shirts are designed to fit your body rather than your gender. Designed for all body types, the shirts have a looser cut with left-over right buttoning and a hidden bust button to avoid gaping in the chest area.

OurShelves

The children’s book subscription box company, OurShelves, envisions a world where all children have access to high-quality, varied stories that both affirm their own identities as well as positively introduce them to the wide range of humanity existing within our world.

Queer Candle Co.

Queer Candle Co. is a small-batch candle company, with each product made from soy wax and non-toxic fragrances. As a trans and queer owned business, they prioritize giving back to the community by donating 10% of profits to the Sylvia Rivera Law Project, an NYC based grassroots organization working to "guarantee that all people are free to self-determine gender identity and expression, regardless of income or race, and without facing harassment, discrimination or violence."

Wildfang

Wildfang is a queer and female founded apparel company on a mission to rethink gender norms. They believe your clothes should be as unique and expressive as you are. 

If you're looking for an inclusive LGBTQ+-friendly community and love Multitude shows, join our free Discord server! It’s the perfect place to meet new people and bond over all things Multitude and podcasts.

Audio Is Different From Video, So We Filmed Our Audio Recording to Show You

Something is missing from the discussion around podcasting’s pivot to a video medium instead of an audio one. It’s not that the Pivot to Video already has a Wikipedia page that shows it was a failed and crippling play from a decade ago; it’s not that people like audio-only content too and there’s no reason to scrap it; it’s not that this is a must-10x-at-all-times tech company play so Spotify can keep consuming. All of that is true, but it’s not what I’m talking about. There’s a lot we can do as an audio-only medium that video can’t.

It’s easier to show you what I mean. Amanda and I recorded two intro segments for our podcast Attach Your Résumé. These intros are contemporaneous housekeeping: after one of us interviews someone about their digital job, the other person listens to the interview and prepares an observation to foreground it for the audience. We also do a call-to-action and say anything else that we want the listeners to know.

For this recording, where we prepared to do two 5-minute intros, we decided to turn a camera on in the studio to show what it would look like if we didn’t cut anything. That would reflect what we lose when we go from audio into video. The cuts on video are much more obvious, meaning it's more distracting to cut small mistakes than it is to keep them in. So when you record video, you don’t, and can’t, edit out the small bits that make high-quality podcasts sound effortless and interesting (especially because our editor Mischa is really, really good at it.)

So here it is, warts and all:

You watched it? Here are some things I noticed when I watched it back:

• I act differently when a camera is on me! I’ve been thinking about this ever since the Ringer, under Spotify’s directive, has made almost all of their shows into YouTube channels. And their core hosts, many of which started as bloggers and became podcasters, are thrust into videodom. And I’ve noticed their tone is different! They’re more self-conscious, they’re wackier, they lean on political jokes, their kids, or LA excursions and go-to topics when they feel like someone hasn’t spoken in a while. And man, didn’t I do the same thing when I was on camera! I felt self-conscious when I was perceived visually after podcasting without it for so long. Maybe I’ll be more comfortable after a while, but abruptly turning the video on when it wasn’t on before changed my behavior.

• I totally forgot I was going to be on video, so I dressed for the gym. Amanda did not forget this fact and put on a full face of makeup. I feel like I’m in a Gender Studies 101 textbook.

• Communicating information in a tight window is hard. Our camera was perched on a monitor that we keep in the studio, so we were looking at the notes that we had drawn up for these two intros. We wanted to get it right, so I’m glad we took retakes of things that I thought didn’t work. And only having to retake some things, and not the entire segment, is a real boon for audio-specific editing. If this was going to be a video podcast, we would have had to choose between starting over from scratch or making a noticeable cut.

• Honestly, I don’t want to be a YouTuber. That’s why I became a podcaster. We do record video for some shows at Multitude, but only for clips that we share on social media. Releasing the full video of a podcast recording feels like encroaching on a different medium, a medium I never wanted to do. I love how connected podcast fans are to their shows, I love how they listen when they’re doing something else, and I love the surprise they have when they see my face on a TikTok video or at a live show. And I’ve been on the Internet long enough to know YouTube is not some Internet Elysium field that the hot-take podcast artists, the tech disrupters, and the big companies are making it out to be. That was the reason why Jack Conte started Patreon--his music videos made no money with Google AdSense. Talk to any YouTuber, and they hate the grind and the changing algo and the fact that any viewer is two steps away from You Won’t Believe These 5 Pheromones to Woo the Trad Wife Of Your Dreams! Why do we want to dive into this wholly-different-and-filled-with-its-own-distinct-problems pool when we have our own not-perfect pool here?

What else did you notice about the video? Listen to the Dr. Claire Aubin and Akoto Ofori-Atta episodes; did we sound better after editing? Did I look cute? Tell me about it on Bluesky or don’t; podcasts don’t have a comment section and I love that.

Head of Development, Multitude
