Audio Olney is a podcast envisioned to share the stories of the diverse ethnic and socio-economic neighborhood of Olney in Philadelphia. Audio Olney aims to bring community voices to the table, highlight cultural expressions and examine what makes the neighborhood unique in its history and current beauty and complexity.
The first season is co-produced by Olney Culture Lab and Amber Art & Design. The podcast is hosted by Linda Fernandez and Keir Johnston of Amber Art and Design; sound design and editing by June Lopez; research and writing by Malcolm Burnley.
Episode Six of Audio Olney debuts on July 30, 2021. This episode celebrates one of Olney’s biggest calling cards and that is the diverse food culture that permeates the neighborhood with its variety of eateries and bakeries that line the North 5th Street business corridor to the recipes that people bring with them from their home countries of origin. We also touch on the deep food insecurity that was brought on by the pandemic and how a church food pantry stays committed to meeting the needs of the community.
