A visual feast with Lokalpedia

The Howie Severino Podcast

Who says podcasts have to be only audio?

Introducing part 2 of this landmark “audiozine” episode on Sherwin Felix, the millennial food content creator behind the digital archive Lokalpedia, which has a unique heritage take on Philippine cuisine.

This podcast has always had a video counterpart posted on certain platforms, but video only of the online interviews. One of Howie’s I-Witness documentaries was repurposed for a podcast episode.

To produce this audiozine our podcast team actually had to leave our homes.

Shooting on location for the first time, we went to the Taal lakeshore in Batangas to produce video of Sherwin in a natural setting with a table of little known Philippine heirloom food ingredients. It was a refreshing respite from our usual zoom encounters with thought leaders.

Don’t get used to it. This format is a special occasion to mark this podcast’s third anniversary. We will continue to innovate and occasionally produce audiozines.

Our team enjoyed producing this one as it was a chance to see each other face to face as well as hold, smell and taste the delectable objects our guest was talking about with so much passion.
