Our Story
The Festival Daily Buzz is a podcast/radio program founded in 2011 by Irene Cho. The show has interviewed hundreds of important voices in independent cinema, film journalism, and the entertainment industry in general. A few of these voices include the Russo Brothers, Ron Howard, Liz Garbus, Ryan Coogler, Justin Simien, Nick Offerman, John Lithgow, Damien Chazelle, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Stan Lee, Andrea Riseborough, and so many more.
Segments are recorded on location at each festival, including the Sundance and Slamdance Film Festivals in Park City, SXSW in Austin, and Cannes in France.
We partner with local NPR affiliates for distribution and broadcast, which have included KCPW and KRCL in Salt Lake City, KPCW in Park City, and K*T in Austin. We're also always expanding to new media outlets such as iTunes, YOMYOMF.com, MovieCityNews.com, and many more.
We are a volunteer-based passion project, and always appreciate a hello from those who may be interested in sponsoring or donating to our cause.
The show is currently produced by Lansia Wann.
