Nate DiMeo is the creator of The Memory Palace podcast and he also reports regularly on pop culture for All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and now and then for Marketplace (where he worked as an editor and producer for, what -- four years? Maybe five. Hard to say.). He's produced for American RadioWorks, NPR's On Point, WBUR's Here and Now, and a long-defunct show called One Union Station on his hometown station, WRNI in Providence. He also does other freelance-y stuff from his garage/office in Hollywood, where more than once, his recordings have been ruined by the sound of enormous fronds falling from his neighbor's palm tree and striking its roof.
