Podcasting is an incredible tool for capturing stories.
Having fallen in love with podcasting as a medium- first as a listener and now a creator- abbie is interested in seeing what other stories she can help to capture.
In october 2025, Abbie had the opportunity to do some live podcasting at the Relating Systems Thinking and Design (RSD14) Conference in Toronto. (See photo to the right)
​
Abbie set up a small table, with a humble recording set-up and some signs inviting conference participants to sit down and record a short conversation. Over the course of three days, abbie spoke with members of the rsd community about their background, experience of the conference, and what ideas were being generated for them from the sessions they had participated in.​​​​​
When abbie first pitched the idea of live podcasting to the lovely people at rsd, She was remembering all the meaningful conversations that she, herself, has had between sessions at conferences. believing this to be the real value of gathering in community, Abbie set out to capture just a few of the many similar conversations that were happening throughout the week in an attempt to offer a sample of the kinds of movement, engery, and excitement that were generated in the space.
Opting to do very little editing and adding only an episode introduction by way of providing context for this new kind of episode, Abbie hopes to let the collection of conversations speak for itself.
Check out the result of these captured conversations at the button below.​
After the transformative experience that Abbie had podcasting at rsd14, she is interested in exploring the possibilities of podcast as a storytelling medium further.
