“[Short Cuts] has long been an important showcase and proving ground for many of the best producers of narrative documentary storytelling. It is without easy parallel in other media, a place where new voices and established creators are on even footing…” Touched to see this!

i think it’s safe to say a lot of us will be keeping the audio adventure flame alive thanks to Short Cuts 🌱

We're truly overwhelmed and moved by what's been written about @josielong.bsky.social's Short Cuts both in @thetimes.com by @patricianicol.bsky.social and in the Observer by @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social this morning...
A screenshot of The Sunday Times radio review by Patricia Nicol on the end of Josie Long's Short Cuts. A picture of Josie smiling against a red background, the caption reads "Radio 4 reveals the nightmare of a family torn apart by crime - but is the station turning its back on quality documentaries?"A screenshot of the Observer radio review. The caption reads "in praise of the BBC's axed mini-documentary strand"

a profound loss for mainstream audio offerings i'm remembering that after the winter comes spring. i'm honouring the cycles of change and at the same time, acknowledging that there are terrible gardeners in our field.

After 12 years on the radio, @josielong.bsky.social's Short Cuts will have its last series on BBC Radio 4 this winter. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
Against a backdrop of a forest carpeted with bluebells, a block of text reads, “After 12 years on the radio, we’re sad to share the news that BBC Radio 4 has chosen to end Short Cuts. 

The episode on 7th January 2025 will be our last on their airwaves.

We are proud of this audio garden, and what has grown here over the years.”

People are reporting back that after listening to Empire City they are experiencing a stronger core, more flexibility and deeper lung saturation. Cleaner teeth etc. It’s really something. Also learning about cops. crooked.com/podcast-seri...

“Hard times are coming, when we’ll be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now, can see through our fear-stricken society and its obsessive technologies to other ways of being, and even imagine real grounds for hope.”– Ursula K. Le Guin
