Podversations Presents: City of the Rails

When journalist Danelle Morton’s daughter skipped town to hop trains, Morton followed her into the train yard, and across America. In City of the Rails, the listener shadows Morton as she travels the country trying to understand what drew her daughter to this life. Her guides are the rail cops, train engineers, and people she meets along the way, each of them with their own extraordinary tales of the beauty and brutality of the rails.   Join Conal Bryne, CEO of iHeartMedia’s Digital Audio Group, as he chats with Danelle Morton, host of “City of the Rails”, about making such an intimate story into a raw, beautiful investigative podcast with themes that are reaching dedicated new audiences. Hear what an accomplished author thinks about the unique value of the podcast medium and its connection with worldwide audiences.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
