The M/C Journal is inviting scholars for submissions on the transformation of audio and radio content in the cultural and technological era of the Internet. The focus is on how these changes have affected industries, communities, and individuals. The call is open to case studies, historical explorations, and topics like the dynamics between audio, radio, and sound, the role of audio in politics, and storytelling in audio formats.
The study examined factors contributing to audience loyalty to podcasts, integrating social identity theory and uses and gratification theory. Results revealed that most creator characteristics and both entertaining and narrative nature of podcast content significantly influence audience loyalty.
