How to Pitch a Podcast in a Pandemic (HTPPP) is a think tank for dreaming up ideas for podcasts, based at the School of Journalism and Media Studies (JMS) in Makhanda, South Africa. The podcast started in 2021 when a group of senior JMS students decided that it was time to convince the school to begin producing its own podcasts. Even if it was the middle of a pandemic. They recorded the journey of pitching the podcast to the school and captured this in the first season of HTPPP. In 2022, students in the schools second-year program are again pitching podcast ideas. For Season Two of HTPPP, they produced a whole series of pilots, each dealing with a different podcast concept. Because even if Covid 19 is not yet done with us, life continues.

Who is Who - Pilot
Sunday, 23 October, 2022
Show Description Who is Who? It is a podcast designed to spark thoughts and conversations around masculinity and femininity in society and the transitions of these phenomena throughout the years. Proudly brought to you by the second-year Journalism and Media Studies podcasting class from Rhodes University in the Eastern Cape, this podcast explores social expectations on what it means to be a man or a woman in relationships, workplaces, churches, positions of power, etc. have shifted over the years. Furthermore, we discuss the world’s mixed views on these phenomena, with the idea of unpacking the differences and similarities between the man and the woman by concentrating on the term masculinity and femininity. This podcast aims to have action-oriented discussions with a “make something happen” attitude, taking the initiative and problem-solving energy to unpack masculinity and femininity. Show Notes In this pilot episode of Who is Who? We unpack the social expectations of what it means to be a man or a woman in relationships—exploring how these expectations have shifted over the years. Relationships are no longer based on traditional heterosexual norms and gender roles but instead see the infusion of individualism. People have become more fluid in how they act or expect their partners to act in relationships. Our host, Tumiso Maseng, takes us through this game of dating. She introduces us to Nosipho Hlophe, who tackled the topic of the approach game in dating. Then we hear different views and opinions on dating and what traits people look for in a relationship from different people interviewed by Tatenda Mutungwa. We also hear from Tumiso Maseng, who spoke to people from different age groups about their opinion of traditional gender roles. Closing of the first-ever episode of Who is Who? Is Aphiwe Thamba, who spoke to Princess Sathegke about what it feels like to be a woman who doesn't conform to societal standards.
