A show about nothing
Published: April 20, 2026
Duration: 27:44
A few months ago, we put out an episode about what silence sounds like, and it caught the attention of Rob Rosenthal, who hosts a podcast called Sound School about the craft of audio storytelling. So he called up host Noam Hassenfeld to ask him a question he couldn't stop thinking about: How do you make something that sounds like nothing?
Host: Rob Rosenthal, host of Sound School Podcast
Guest: Noam Hassenfeld
