44 分钟Hey listeners, there's just a few weeks left to enter our sound off short story competition.
What we're looking for is fully produced, sound-related audio stories that are around five minutes or less.
They could include interviews, narration, sound design, music, whatever helps tell the story.
We'll count down the winning stories in a special episode this summer.
The top creator will also get a private feedback session with our team, as well as $100 in credit to our online store.
Submissions close on May 7th.
For more info and to submit your story, visit 20k.org slash sound off.
There's also a link in the show notes.
I've been making 20,000 Hertz with the incredible team at my sound agency DeFacto Sound for 211 episodes and over eight and a half years.
And in all that time, our introduction has always just been me saying this.
You're listening to 20,000 Hertz.
I'm Dallas Taylor.
If you've heard a few episodes, you might have picked up on a theme, which is listening.
I start our episodes with your listening too, and I end them with thanks for listening.
I also intentionally call you the audience listeners.
Now one of my favorite things happens at the end of every episode,
when you hear the voices of the people who made the show reading their own credits.
But in the intro, it's always just me.
And that started to feel off.
So I wanted to start the show in the same way we end it,
