PRP Podcast Co-Op

Welcome to the PRP Podcast Co-op! Our expanding hive of podcasts explore topics that keep Portland buzzing, including business, culture and lifestyle.

The PRP Podcast Co-op investigates, entertains and informs, delivering an eclectic mix of shows for Portlanders – and for anyone, anywhere, who streams  through the PRP app.

The Co-op format is specifically designed for organizations that want to expand their presence in our community, but who may not have time to meet the demands of a weekly schedule. We provide the studio, equipment, professional engineering, marketing and an established audience to save time and manage costs.

PRP made its foray into talk programming in 2015 with the launch of Biz503, a podcast focused on startups and small businesses proliferating in Portland. Now, PRP presents:

• Many Roads to Here, which tells the stories of American immigrants, in their own words – a partnership with The Immigrant Story, a local nonprofit.
• Culture Hub PDX, our podcast exploring urgent, compelling social and cultural issues, especially racial inequity and disparate impacts of COVID-19.
• The Early Link, on early childhood development,with support from the Children’s Institute.
