Sonic Dash: How Two Journalists Made a Dash-Sized History Podcast

The Sonic Dash Podcast continues its behind-the-scenes look into the standout pieces from the latest Sonic Dash, themed "Go For Broke." In this episode, host Cory Choy (founder of the Dash, Emmy-winning sound mixer, and owner of Silver Sound Studios) sits down with finalists Nathan Burke and Audrey Hill, two freelance journalists who brought their reporting instincts to the Dash for the first time.

Nathan and Audrey break down how an hour of Googling in the park led them from the phrase "Go For Broke" to the story of Japanese American soldiers during World War II, and to the diary of Stanley Hayami, the real-life hero of their piece.
