What kind of podcast is CultureKlatsch?
CultureKlatsch, a production of the English Department at the University of Colorado Denver, extends our conversations about contemporary culture by sharing nuanced, perceptive commentary on the content that matters most. The vast expanse of stories available through Netflix, Amazon, iTunes, and other streaming services has the ability to point our cultural lenses in a thousand different directions. CultureKlatsch examines the media that’s most relevant to the current cultural moment and that’s most likely to emerge in our everyday discussions with friends. Our aim is to recreate those spontaneous conversations we all have in coffee shops while delving deeply into what topical books, television, and movies have to tell us about who we are and what we care most about.
