Welcome to Off Mic, a new podcast from Philly Audio Diaries.

Welcome to Off Mic, a new podcast from Philly Audio Diaries.

Let’s face it, most of the news we hear is white. And middle class. And where are the young people?

On Off Mic, we hand the microphone over to young people of color from the great city of Philadelphia. You want to know something that’s not so great about where we come from? Philadelphia is the poorest big city in America. Our youth producers have stories to tell. They’re resilient, and curious.

And here’s the thing, we need to hear these stories.

This season, we tackle parental neglect, vaccine hesitancy, and present a special interview with Adjoa Andoh of Netflix's "Bridgerton." You've never heard a youth podcast quite like this.
