More about me
About me: I have been in the Indian radio and audio industry for over fifteen years now, nearly eight of which were spent as the evening drivetime radio show host at two local commercial FM stations in Pune, India. Other than my radio stints, I have worked as a ghostwriter, a trainer, a guest lecturer, a technical writer, a corporate communications guy, a game script developer, and also written software for hobby purposes.

Here's a short list of some of my recent achievements:
- Most recently, one of my productions was chosen for In The Dark radio's New Voices exhibition held in July 2022. The piece was also featured for about a month on the Transmitter website xmtr.fm here: https://www.xmtr.fm/transmissions/the-covid-happiness-project (Archive link: https://archive.is/kCXHg)
- I placed among the Top 10 finalists at KCRW's 9th Annual Radio Race held in November 2021, for my piece titled, "Want to be my neighbour?" (https://soundcloud.com/shrikant-joshi/want-to-be-my-neighbor-kcrw-radio-race-shrikantjoshi)
- I have produced an audio-series on Mental Health in Hindi/Hinglish called "Mano-Gyanic" (https://www.audible.in/series/Mano-Gyanic-Audiobooks/B08S5PFTDX) which is now available exclusively on Audible India.
- I used to (irregularly) make episodes for my own self-published podcast called "The Covid H________ Project" (https://anchor.fm/tchp) which is currently dormant. A couple of sample episodes from this series: "A day in the life of Dr. Bharat..." (https://anchor.fm/tchp/episodes/EP-45--A-day-in-the-life-of-Dr--Bharat-evkuve) and "Virus, Variants, and vaccines" (https://anchor.fm/tchp/episodes/Ep--43-Virus--variants--and-vaccines-Gyandemic-eurqi4)
- I’ve uploaded a larger, consolidated set of various samples (both audio & video) across my career, available in a folder called “Shrikant’s Folio” (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1PeRSMUqhTkzjpuF0YFZ5_lOLSMplrq1H).
