Tips for this reference type

  • See 14.168, 14.165, and 14.161. Also refer to 14.1 for adapting examples to Chicago B.
  • If the podcast does not use series and episode numbers, omit this detail from your footnote and reference list entries.
  • A podcast or series title should be italicised. Podcast episode titles should be placed in quotation marks. See Manual 8.191.
  • For recordings accessed online, if there is no date of production or broadcast provided, you should include an access date prior to the URL. E.g. "...accessed Month Day, Year, URL." See Manual 13.15.
  • Different sources will provide more or less information about the item. Any facts relevant to identifying the item should be included, for example the name of a YouTube channel or where and when it was recorded.
  • Use a permanent URL wherever available. If there is no appropriate link, name the platform or database instead (e.g. Spotify).
