The Buzz: The Berkeley High Jacket Podcast

At Berkeley High, many students choose to listen to music during passing periods, at lunch, and even in class. Music is fun to listen to, but it can also help to regulate our moods, remind us of happy memories, distract us from negative emotions, and connect with others. On this week’s episode of the Buzz, as we continue to explore the theme of mental well-being, producers Miriam Reichenberg and Sofia Rodriguez talked to students about what music means to them, and how it helps them process their emotions.

This episode was produced by Miriam Reichenberg and Sofia Rodriguez. It was also edited by Lucy Rickart-Webb. Audio clips from Shuggie Otis’s song “Strawberry Letter 23” were included throughout. If you have any specific episode ideas that you would like to share, we would love to hear from you.
