El mundo cambia y nosotros cambiamos gracias -en no menor medida-, a quienes se animan a expresarse p blicamente y desafiar el status quo. Hoy en d a, nuestro conocimiento sobre temas anteriormente incomprendidos o estigmatizados como la sexualidad, el empoderamiento y la inclusi n LGBTQ est en constante evoluci n, debido a la abundancia de recursos y a las personas que no son t midas para hablar. En los ltimos a os, muchos han recurrido al podcasting como un medio que puede brindar intimidad, privacidad y empat a inigualables en torno a discusiones importantes.
Con herramientas como Anchor y programas como Sound Up de Spotify, el podcasting se est convirtiendo cada vez m s accesible a quienes reci n comienzan en este mundo y para individuos de grupos hist ricamente subrepresentados. Cada d a, los creadores est n subiendo nuevos shows a Spotify sobre temas que son importantes y significativos para ellos, y encontrando un p blico igualmente creciente dispuesto a escuchar.
Sigue leyendo para descubrir c mo el podcasting ha empoderado conversaciones en pa ses tan diversos como Chile, Argentina, India y Francia.
Podcasters en el Cono Sur crean espacios ntimos En los pa ses latinoamericanos de Argentina y Chile, los podcasts relacionados a la sexualidad, el empoderamiento femenino y la diversidad aparecen con frecuencia entre los podcasts m s escuchados. Muchos son conducidos por grupos de amigos o incluso socios que pueden crear espacios ntimos para el otro - y el oyente - para obtener informaci n sobre un tema del que quiz s no conoc an mucho.
Por ejemplo, Concha Podcast, un espacio de di logo en donde amigas conversan acerca de temas femeninos, es uno de los podcasts m s escuchados en Argentina. Acabar, un podcast documental sobre el orgasmo femenino, se convirti en la tercera producci n original de Spotify m s escuchada en el pa s. De manera similar, putopakitorta, involucra a una mujer, un hombre homosexual y a un hetero, que debanten temas controvertidos sin pudor; mientras que Girl, and a terapia, presenta a una chica trans que responde los mensajes de oyentes pidiendo consejo. En Puto Viejo, el psicoterapeuta Gus Casals nos saca la venda de los ojos y cuenta lo que implicaba ser gay en la Buenos Aires de los 80 y los 90.
En Chile, el podcasting tambi n proporciona una plataforma para las mujeres que no tienen miedo de hablar sobre los que les da placer. Con la ayuda de mis amikas domina el Top 10 de los podcasts m s escuchados en el pa s. Weona que creici presenta a dos amigos homosexuales que se animan a hablar sin restricciones de sus historias personales, incluyendo muchos detalles que, durante a os, mantuvieron en el closet debido al estigma social. Cada podcast llega a oyentes vidos y agradecidos a trav s de las conversaciones honestas y abiertas de los anfitriones.
Los podcasters LGBTQ de la India encuentran privacidad As como sucede en este lado del mundo, en India los podcasters y oyentes est n apreciando los programas que tocan tem ticas que previamente no habr an discutido en p blico. Para los podcasters, el medio brinda a las comunidades marginadas, incluidas las personas LGBTQ, un canal que permite la privacidad. Otro medio popular en el pa s, los blogs de video o vlogging , no permiten el mismo nivel de anonimato. Los creadores detr s de los originales de Spotify Shuddh Desi Gay y De Taali Life of a Trangender pueden utilizar esta herramienta para darles a los oyentes una visi n m s profunda de las vidas de la comunidad LGBTQ+. Otro show Original de Spotify, Love Aaj Kal with Aastha & Ankit, es conducido por dos amigos que discuten preguntas del tipo Es malo ver porno? (Is watching porn a bad thing?), junto con una serie sobre Dilemas sexuales ( Sex dilemmas. )
Los podcasters franceses le dan un espacio a la Empat a Finalmente, los podcasts permiten conversaciones francas, honestas y abiertas, adem s de historias que llegan directo al coraz n e inspiran la empat a. En Francia, la segunda temporada del ampliamente reconocido Original de Spotify, Coming Out, incluye a famosas celebridades, tales como el cineasta Xavier Dolan, artistas, escritores, fil sofos y pol ticos que se re nen a discutir sus historias de salida del closet, y el viaje que cada uno tom antes de decidir hacerlo.
Llevando la conversaci n m s all Pero estos temas descubiertos en torno a la salud de las mujeres -y el uso del podcasting para exponerlos- no est n limitados a los pa ses mencionados. La intimidad que los podcasts entregan han servido a movilizadores del cambio como Michelle Obama, quien discute sobre la menopausia durante un episodio de su podcast en Estados Unidos el 2020. Los podcasters est n tomando el micr fono para hablar de temas como la intimidad entre las parejas, racismo sistem tico, una vida sin violencia, y cambio clim tico, en adici n a temas populares como historias de cr menes verdaderos, noticias y deportes.
M s y m s creadores est n recurriendo a los podcasts como una forma de compartir sus historias y difundir informaci n. Y con m s de 50 mil horas de nuevos contenidos de podcasts subidos a Spotify cada d a, los oyentes tambi n se inspiran sin fin.
