Casting is a huge part of the audiobook production process—a narrator crafts the whole story—so it makes sense that authentic casting has been on the rise across audiobooks in recent years.

This episode of the Narrators Roundtable brings Joel Froomkin into the fray with our hosts to discuss what we’ve seen on the ground in terms of casting, and what informs our perspectives.
