About

Become a better storyteller, in audio and beyond. 

Sound Judgment takes listeners into the studios — and the minds — of your favorite audio storytellers. In each episode, lifelong journalist Elaine Appleton Grant and a top host, producer or editor deconstruct one of their episodes and dive into their creative choices. It’s a revealing conversation about the storytelling craft, and it’s show and tell: Elaine plays back clips from her guest’s podcast. Tune up your storytelling by learning from today's best creators! 

New episodes every other week.

“Elaine is specific and thorough, answering questions that everyone is wondering, but not too many people are addressing. Each episode is packed with real advice, multiple takeaways for people in audio. The takeaways at the end are hugely valuable.” 
— LAUREN PASSELL, TINK MEDIA

 

Awards & Accolades

 

 

 

 
Thanks to Everybody Media for including us in the 2023 International Women's Podcast Awards. We entered the category, "A Moment of Insight from a Role Model," with our episode featuring Glynn Washington of Snap Judgment, talking about his animating force, which is empathy. He also speaks about having grown up in a cult and seeing storytelling weaponized, which we're seeing today -- and choosing to use storytelling for good. Congratulations to all of the podcasters who won and to all of those who were shortlisted!
