This week, host Ronald Young Jr. talks to John DeLore, a podcast editor and sound designer who’s been in the industry since its heyday. He’s produced hugely popular shows for companies like Gimlet and Stitcher, and now he runs his own production company, Starlight Diner Studio. In the interview, John breaks down his sound design process, shares tips for collaborating with clients, and explains how he keeps surviving despite the industry’s downturn.

After the interview, Ronald and co-host Isaac Butler talk about the importance of defining what “good work” means to you.

In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, John discusses his favorite musical instruments and his feelings about Harry Styles.
