Nick Quah

Launching today, "Servant Of Pod With Nick Quah" is a weekly deep dive into the evolving world of podcasts.

In each episode, Nick:

  • Discusses industry news
  • Explores the most exciting angles of podcast culture
  • And gets into the weeds with established and up-and-coming producers

Along the way, Nick and his guests will also give listeners recommendations on the shows they should be checking out.

To kick things off, Nick tries to build a (very) brief picture of where the podcast world is right now with the help of "Team Coco’s" Adam Sachs and Earios co-founder Priyanka Mattoo. He also gets advice on how to be a decent podcast host from a great podcast host: "Death Sex and Money’s" Anna Sale.

Listen above and subscribe today.

Coming soon from LAist Studios:

Hollywood, The Sequel (June 23)

  • Through conversations with influential industry figures such as Kerry Washington, Guillermo del Toro, Glenn Close, Judd Apatow, Ramy Youssef and more, host John Horn will look at opportunities to change the entertainment industry for the better following this moment of severe disruption.

California Love (July 9)

  • In this anthology series, award-winning journalist and author Walter Thompson-Hernández takes listeners on a fiercely intimate audio tour of his beloved hometown of Los Angeles.

California City (July 13)

  • Deep in the Mojave Desert sits a would-be city of the future, a desolate plot frequented only by prospective investors and real estate agents promising a future of riches. But award-winning journalist Emily Guerin finds the reality is much different — a story of dreams overshadowed by deceit.

Instead, we answer to you and our connected community. We are free to tell the full truth, to hold power to account without fear or favor, and to follow facts wherever they lead. Our only loyalty is to our audiences and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen our community.

Right now, LAist has lost $1.7M in annual funding due to Congress clawing back money already approved. The support we receive before year-end will determine how fully our newsroom can continue informing, serving, and strengthening Southern California.
