The era of the podcast is upon us. In reality, it has been for some time. Independently produced podcasts like WTF, Hardcore History, and 99 Percent Invisible are more popular than ever, while Public radio stations around the country have gained national renown thanks to the popularity of their downloadable productions. These days, WBEZ's "This American Life" and WNYC's "Radio Lab" are practically household names.
Now Detroit's own WDET 101.9 FM is joining the podcast craze with "The Beginning of the End," a bi-weekly production hosted by Alex Trajano "featuring people who feel the winds of change blowing (and messing with their lives)." According to WDET's website, the show is "coming soon."
The show's producers are currently soliciting stories about the endings of the following things:
A Secret
A Career
A Winning Streak
A Grudge
A Fear
A Value System
Living at Home
The Old You
