Twenty Thousand Hertz

Twenty Thousand Hertz is a podcast about "the world’s most recognizable and interesting sounds". Episodes are published every other Wednesday.
Overview.
The show's title refers to highest frequency that can be perceived within the human hearing range (without hearing loss). It grew out of host Dallas Taylor's admiration for the podcast "99% Invisible" and a desire to hear more stories like the ones they produced about audio design. The show is hosted and produced by Dallas Taylor and the writer of the episode, with help from Sam Schneble.
Though the audio production company Defacto Sound, which is owned by Taylor, is the production headquarters for "Twenty Thousand Hertz", he has said that the podcast is not intended as content marketing. Instead of focusing on the industry of sound design exclusively, episodes focus on a variety of topics related to sound. The podcast has covered topics such as the THX Deep Note, misophonia, the Voyager Golden Record, ASMR, and advertising jingles. 
In 2018, a crossover episode called "Theater of the Mind" was produced with the podcast "Imaginary Worlds", which explored the history of radio dramas.
In May 2020, host Dallas Taylor gave a TED Talk titled "What silence can teach you about sound." The talk discussed John Cage's composition "4'33"", a topic which had previously been explored in an episode of Twenty Thousand Hertz.
In August 2020, the podcast joined the TED podcast network, but left due to unexplained reasons.
In September 2020, following a "Twenty Thousand Hertz" episode about audio deepfakes, host Dallas Taylor was featured in a segment of NPR's "Here & Now", discussing the topic.
In October 2020, host Dallas Taylor was featured in an episode of the "TED Radio Hour" titled "Sound and Silence," which drew from his TED Talk.
In November 2020, Dallas Taylor was featured in an episode of the "Popular Science" podcast "The Weirdest Thing I Learned This Week," discussing the use of animals noises in sound design.
