I heard myself say it always starts with rebellion, followed by dissatisfaction, which gives way to hope. Hope is one of those things that can link our past, present, and our future.</p> <p>In 2003, PRX was founded with a vision to revolutionize the way we create, distribute, and consume audio content. We set out on this journey with a few pioneers who dared to dream big, and with the support and dedication of our ever-growing community of creators, producers, listeners, and supporters, we have transformed that dream into a reality.</p> <p>Over the past year, PRX has paved the way for:</p> <ul> <li><b>Diverse and Impactful Content.</b> We have been at the forefront of curating and distributing diverse, thought-provoking, and entertaining content that has captivated audiences around the world.</li> <li><b>Impactful Partnerships.</b> We believe that the return on relationships is often greater than the return on investments. We have partnered with the best in our field and we champion their success on their own terms.</li> <li><b>Training and Content Development Initiatives.</b> Our commitment to generously sharing our knowledge has empowered aspiring creators and enriched the media landscape by nurturing the next generation of talent.</li> <li><b>Influence on Public Media.</b> PRX has played a pivotal role in reshaping public media by embracing new technologies, distribution methods, and content formats. Our impact extends beyond our own organization, influencing the broader media landscape.</li> </ul> <p>As we reflect on the last year, we are not only celebrating our recent accomplishments, but also looking forward to a new year filled with innovation, growth, and opportunities. The media landscape continues to evolve, and we are committed to leading the way, ensuring that public media remains a powerful and relevant force.</p> <p>We want to express our deepest gratitude to all of you — our network partners, creators, and listeners — for your unwavering commitment to PRX.

<div class="content-arrow-down"></div> <div class="content"> <p>“I tell people that I turned on public radio and never turned it off. What I found was a wealth of information, knowledge, music, and entertainment coming to me from one place on my radio dial. I was so excited to contribute to my first fundraising campaign! I got a bumper sticker, which I proudly displayed on my 1978 Honda Accord.</p> <p>How I missed public radio when I moved to a small town in Italy. The first Gulf War started and Radio Free Europe was the only English language broadcast. CNN was new, and its television reports were overdubbed in Italian. I couldn’t even get an English language newspaper on a daily basis. Later, I lived in Hong Kong and visited as many countries in Asia as I could. Google was brand new then, but it was still hard to get the news I craved from home and other parts of the world.</p> <p>When I moved back to the US, I turned on my radio and found <a href="https://theworld.org" target="_blank"><span><em>The World</em><span></a>. How refreshing to hear about the countries where I’d lived! No other news source follows international news like <em>The World</em>. Once you’ve lived extensively in other countries, your understanding and interest in global news is forever altered and heightened. PRX is also the home of some of my favorite shows: <a href="https://themoth.org" target="_blank"><span><em>The Moth Radio Hour</em><span></a>, <a href="https://thisamericanlife.org" target="_blank"><span><em>This American Life</em><span></a>, <a href="https://revealnews.org" target="_blank"><span><em>Reveal</em></span></a>, <a href="https://www.ted.com/about/programs-initiatives/ted-talks/ted-talks-audio" target="_blank"><span><em>TED Talks Daily</em></span></a>.</p> <p>Following the evolution of PRX as a provider of broadcast programs as well as a myriad of excellent podcasts has enriched my life. I can say without a doubt that attending <a href="https://www.prx.org/ambassador-council" target="_blank"><span>PRX Ambassador Council</span></a> events has always been a highlight of my year. Scintillating, engaging, and thought-provoking. I always come away with insights, new ideas, and a deeper understanding of the issues we face today.</p> <p>And I know I will <a href="https://www.prx.org/shows" target="_blank">keep listening</a> to the PRX podcast portfolio. Podcasts are the great new thing, afterall, but you will pry my public radio from my cold dead hands.”</p> <p class="citation">— Katherine Harris, Ambassador Council Member</p> </div> </div><div

In December and April, the makers of “<a href='https://www.ttbook.org/series/going-for-broke' target='_blank'><span>Going for Broke</span></a>,” a special series from PRX's <em><a href='https://www.ttbook.org/' target='_blank'><span>To the Best of Our Knowledge</span></a></em> and the Economic Hardship Reporting Project, connected with listeners for panel discussions in Boston and at KQED. In May, Hana Baba and Leila Day of <em><a href='https://thestoop.org' target='_blank'><span>The Stoop</span></a></em> podcast met with Glynn Washington of <em><a href='https://snapjudgment.org/' target='_blank'><span>Snap Judgment</span></a></em> for a live taping on topics ranging from their journeys navigating the podcasting and media industries, to what it means to tell Black stories today. At our Maker Mingle workshop, we explored scoring for the iconic <em><a href='https://www.thisamericanlife.org/' target='_blank'><span>This American Life</span></a></em>.<p>As studios, training facilities, and event spaces, the Garages are expanding capacity to help new creators break into audio — whether that be prepping new storytellers for a debut with <em><a href='https://themoth.org/' target='_blank'><span>The Moth</span></a></em> or getting their stories aired on KQED. On both coasts, the PRX Podcast Garages hold space to connect, learn, and grow in audio.</p> </div> </div><div class="row recommendations"> <h4 class="display-3 my-4">If you like <em><a

Over the past year, we gathered at Blue Rock Artist Ranch and Studio in Wimberley, Texas — the striking home of board member Dodee Crockett and her husband, Billy — for an intimate evening of storytelling and music with Hrishikesh Hirway, host and creator of <a href='https://www.radiotopia.fm/podcasts/song-exploder'target='_blank'><em>Song Exploder</em></a> from Radiotopia, and Sam Beam of Iron & Wine. A few months later we connected at the annual PRX Ambassador Council event in San Francisco, where we journeyed through the world of PRX. We also came together this year in Dallas, New York, and Seattle, among other places, for events featuring talent from across the diverse PRX portfolio.</p><p>To join or learn more about the
