Chapter Choice: May 2020
It’s CHAPTER CHOICE month! So, we didn’t put together a typical thematic podcast listening list together this month. Rather, our 78 chapters all over the world will choose their own adventure. Here are some ideas:
- a non-thematic list of local members’ favorite episodes
- a deep dive into one podcast (maybe an audio drama or other serialized podcast?)
- dig into the archives of past PBC listening lists
BUT….there’s a back-up plan if you need it. If you would rather have the heavy lifting done for you, here is a non-thematic list of favorite-ever episodes from some of our chapter leaders.

How PBC Works:
Just an idea, Since we have so many members and most of us have our favorites. It might be cool to have a goog spreadsheet where we could all add our fav as well. I do not know how many ppl are in each chapter, it t could be paged by chapter if some are big or just one long doc. Maybe the chapter lead creates a page( or anyone in the group, (I’m not assigning jobs! Anyone could help, of course, I would too). Then just post an option if people want to contribute or not.
I have discovered so many great podcasts through this group. I have also not touched upon some of my favorites. It could be interesting as well. I just created a listened to a list from another group from another country. This is what sparked the idea. I also speak often of one episode of a cast that my bf and myself listen too and we both laughed like fools. I would assume most members have something similar it could be good to share.
Love this idea! I like the idea of one long google spreadsheet so it can be sorted by member/genre/etc.
