Audio storytelling is distinctive in its ability to capture the emotion in the voices of people impacted by worldwide issues. WPLN reporter Rose Gilbert accomplishes that in her podcast The Country in Our Hearts, which was released in June. The four-episode series details the tragic history of conflict in the region of Iraqi Kurdistan and how Nashville became home to the largest Kurdish population in the U.S. Gilbert traveled to the region and sorted through decades of archived materials to chronicle this story through the lens of one Nashville family, painting a larger picture of America’s current immigration landscape.
