- Title
The Missing Narrator: Fictional Podcasting and Kaleidosonic Remediation in Gimlet's Homecoming.
- Authors
Hoover, Victoria
- Abstract
Gimlet Media's 2016 podcast Homecoming has been lauded within the genre for both its thematic and technical features, as well as for its choice to forego a narrator-based framing structure. As a fictional podcast, Homecoming remediates classical radio drama but also draws on the traditions of found-footage horror by knitting together various recordings to construct a complete story. As in found-footage horror, podcast's aural collage muddles the lines between story and reality, exposing the tenuousness of the border between the represented and the real and evoking the anxiety of a post-privacy, post-Snowden America.
