Many of us are getting excited to flee the political atmosphere and head to Chicago for Third Coast Audio Festival.
DC Listening Lounge will proudly be showcasing work from the 2016 Sound Scene. Keep an ear tuned to, and eye out for, "Simon Sings," by DCLL member Will Mitchell at the conference. If you're there- come by and make some music.
The next DCLL meeting will be held at Bond's apartment in Silver Spring on Tuesday November 15th at 7:30-10pm.
Please bring any combination of audio (limit excerpts to 6min or less), food, drink and friends to share.

Some gigs you might want to consider:
Marketplace, known for an irreverent approach to business and economic news on multiple platforms, is hiring.
A China-based correspondent to cover a three-year expatriate assignment... We're looking for someone who can tell compelling stories of how China's economy works and how it's transforming, along with how China's economy intersects with the rest of the global economy.
An LA-based senior editor to lead the Sustainability Desk, which covers energy and other natural resources, population and agriculture, and climate change. It follows issues such as drought, wildfires and deteriorating infrastructure from a national and often global perspective. Sustainability at Marketplace is highly project-oriented.

–Audible's Original Content team has begun production on a new documentary sports series. It will include highly-produced, long-form stories (the kind that are really about more than sports).
Our team is looking to hire an additional reporter and producer. These are both full-time, temporary positions with benefits and competitive salaries, that will last for the duration of the first season (32 weeks).
Both positions can be performed remotely (i.e. wherever you are currently based). We might favor candidates in the New York and Boston areas.
You do NOT have to be a huge sports fan to be considered for these positions. It's more important that you have strong storytelling skills and be passionate about long-form audio. You just shouldn't, you know, actively HATE sports.
We are looking to hire both positions quickly, so if you are interested, please apply soon! The application is here.
