Project Overview

Every week Real College Podcast's How to Talk Modern Minnesotan introduces listeners both local and those from afar to home-grown innovators, artists, entrepreneurs, teachers, historians, comics, poets and big thinkers. Fostering a lifetime of engagement and connection with Minnesota arts and culture though fresh, sound-rich, narrative storytelling and reporting while harnessing the power of digital distribution and social media to cross economic, physical and cultural barriers, How to Talk Modern Minnesotan encourages participation and conversation to protect and grow our cultural legacy by telling all of our stories, 30 minutes at a time.
