In order to give the It’s All Journalism team some time off to enjoy the holidays with their families, we’re revisiting our most popular episodes of 2023.
Last week, we shared the second-most downloaded episode of the year, our interview with Adam Rice, the editor of the Downtown Albuquerque News.
This week, we’re featuring our most-downloaded episode of 2023, IAJ host Michael O’Connell’s conversation with Anna Robertson, co-founder and chief content officer of The Cool Down. In addition to replaying our interview with Robertson from last January, we check in to see what’s happened over the intervening months at The Cool Down.
Special Announcement
Our first regular episode of 2024 will also be the 600th episode of It’s All Journalism. To celebrate, we wanted to reward our most loyal listeners by giving away a limited number of our IAJ mugs.
On Feb. 1, we’ll randomly draw names from our newsletter subscription list. If you’re already a subscriber, you don’t need to do anything. But if you aren’t a subscriber, follow this link to subscribe to our weekly newsletter in order to be eligible for our mug giveaway drawing.
