Broadcast Engineers – especially Radio engineers – work behind the scenes to bring you most everything we listen to, including web-delivered audio. With encouragement from Leo himself, broadcast engineer and radio station owner Kirk Harnack brings you This Week in Radio Tech. Along with co-hosts Tom Ray, Chris Tobin, and Chris Tarr, TWiRT episodes feature sage audio advice, “There I was…” stories, and instruction from some of the sharpest minds in audio media technology today. TWiRT is smart, informative, and lots of fun for audio, RF, and packet-loving geeks.
Although the show is no longer in production at TWiT, you can enjoy these older episodes from the TWiT Archives.

Tracking and attribution: TWiT or its partners may connect the fact you listened to this podcast to an action elsewhere on the internet.

This form of attribution is used to measure advertising effectiveness.
Dynamic content insertion: TWiT may use limited data that they know about you - the device you’re using, the approximate location you’re in, or other data that can be derived from this, like the current weather forecast for your area - to change parts of the audio. This Week in Radio Tech (Video) may do this for advertising or for other forms of content, like news stories.
This Week in Radio Tech (Video) is able to use the above tools since its podcast host or measurement company offers this service. It doesn’t mean that this individual podcast uses them, or has access to this functionality. We use open data.
