EarBuds Podcast Collective: *Life-Changing Stories*
How EarBuds Podcast Collective works: EarBuds Podcast Collective is a podcast recommendation engine. We send a weekly email with a theme and five podcast episodes on that theme, and each week is curated by a different person. It’s the best way to discover new podcasts! Since 2017, we’ve recommended over 500 podcasts curated by more than 100 people. Join our community and listen up!
PODCAST CURATOR’S NAME: Christopher Wurst, Creator and host of “22.33” (a podcast by the ECA Collaboratory)
WHY THIS THEME?: We at 22.33 love a storytelling approach—hearing about interesting people in extraordinary situations or how people overcome crazy challenges. For us, the context is always stories: people who have been thrown into unknown places or cultures. A common theme is how people connect with one another, usually for the better.

TUESDAY: Rough Translation – D.I.Y Mosul – 39 minutes
WEDNESDAY: Snap Judgement – Kismet – 39 minutes

FRIDAY: Story District – Deal Breakers – 22 minutes

SELF PROMO: Our whole podcast is constructed on the belief that the more we know about other cultures and other people, the better we are (and the better we can be). Our stories revolve around the deeply impressionable things that happen when people experience international exchanges, and specifically the hundreds of diverse exchange opportunities offered by the U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (eca.state.gov).
CROWD-SOURCED QUESTION: We would like to find educational uses for 22.33 as an English-language teaching tool and to teach about international relations and cultures. I am curious if anyone has had luck expanding their podcast into a teaching resource, and specifically if anyone has experience creating discussion guides around their episodes.
