From the abstract: “Drawing on counterpublics theory, this study employs digital ethnography to explore how Muslim-owned media platforms reclaim self-agency and construct online publics in Anglophone contexts. It examines the audience metrics and discourses of four popular Islamic podcasts: The Thinking Muslim (UK), Blogging Theology (UK), OnePath Network (Australia) and Zaytuna College (US), with a focus on their content production, charismatic appeal and pan-Islamic orientation. It finds that the podcasts actively shape counterpublics through their engagement with decolonial thought, traditionalist scholarship and the amplification of Muslim lived experiences.”
