Say what?: A term used when a person wishes for a surprising or astonishing statement to be repeated, or simply to show their surprise at said statement.
Say What?!? is the Portage District Library’s brand new podcast, where we will introduce you to the services and staff of PDL of which and whom you were not aware of. Each episode will consist of staff talking about the events they plan and host at the library, about the many ways we collect and make information useful to our “reading” public, and talking about books we have read in “novel” ways. Say What?!? is a quick and light way to access the inner workings of Portage District Library and it’s mysterious but enchanting staff. Your librarian hosts Lawrence, Ruth and Jessica are only too happy to record and share nerdy shenanigans with their community of listeners.
In Episode 0 (demoted to an experimental episode because of poor sound quality) we highlight our upcoming Art Encounters event in August; followed by a face off of books “Devil in the White City” and “Johannes Cabal the Necromancer” in our Book Dome segment. We spill the beans about having booze in the library (what?!?), and interview local historian Steve Rossio about the Prohibition Era.?
Music arranged, performed and provided by Eric Cowles.
