Podcast ethnography

This article introduces the method ofpodcast ethnography. The method encompasses three general stages: toexplorea podcast from a particular social field, toengagewith it through careful, ethnographic reflexivity and toexaminethe podcast by developing typologies and themes expedient for analysis. Podcast ethnography is beneficial due to its spatial and temporal flexibility; observing a podcast universe can be performed on the move and in parallel with other tasks. This advantage enables a much-needed breathing space for researchers inquiring vehement milieus, such as white radical nationalism. The article uses an example from this precise milieu in Sweden - the podcastMotgift[Antidote] - to illustrate and flesh out the potentials and challenges of applying the method's three stages. In so doing, the article argues for inclusion of podcast ethnography into the extended family of ethnographic methods.
