Making the Hippo Dance

Earlier this year, Jad and Robert visited the Koshland Center in Washington D.C. to give listeners a behind-the-scenes look at Radiolab. The question here is just how far can you go in the name of making an idea clear? What’s allowed? Is music allowed? Are sound effects allowed? What helps? What hurts? We play some never-released tape from the vault, and reveal a bit about what techniques we used to try and make it sing. Please weigh in on the blog.

Also, if you enjoyed this conversation, you may want to check out the other Radio Lab process talks, like this one at Oberlin University in the spring and another last fall at the Apple store (more…)
