Here, we look at the rules for how to cite a podcast and walk you through the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordvice.com\/blog\/the-best-citation-format-for-science-papers\/\">common referencing styles<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When to Cite a Podcast in an Academic Paper<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You should cite a podcast like you would give credit to any other medium: when you are directly quoting from it, when you are using thoughts and ideas you have heard someone express in a podcast, or when you are summarizing a podcast\u2019s fundamental theory or argument. Not doing so constitutes plagiarism, just like presenting other people\u2019s ideas and work as your own does, no matter what source you took your content from.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How you cite a podcast in a paper depends on the reference style you are following\u2014you need to pay attention to small details like italicization, punctuation, and quotation marks, even if they seem trivial. And no matter what style guide you apply, you need to include the following basic information:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Host\/narrator&#8217;s name<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Podcast\/series\/episode titles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Production\/publication date\/period<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Series\/episode numbers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>URL or app\/platform<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at the (sometimes subtle) differences between the most <a href=\"https:\/\/wordvice.com\/blog\/the-best-citation-format-for-science-papers\/\">common style guides<\/a> when it comes to podcast references.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Citing a Podcast in APA Style<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wordvice.com\/citation-guide\/apa\">APA style<\/a> podcast references include the name(s) of the host(s) followed by \u201cHost\u201d in parentheses, the publication\/production date of the episode in parentheses, the title of the episode in sentence case, the episode number (if applicable) in parentheses, the medium type in brackets, the title of the podcast in italics, the production company, and the URL (if available online):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Host last name, Initials.

However, you can adapt the citation format for online audio or video content to create a citation for a podcast in Vancouver style, for example like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Host(s) or creator(s).

Title of episode. Title of Programme: subtitle [format]. Place of recording: Publisher; Year Date of recording [cited Year Date Cited]. Available from: Internet address.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that Vancouver-style citations always differ depending on the requirements of the journal you are submitting to and that many different variations are acceptable as long as they contain the relevant information and are consistent within a document. Make sure you check the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordvice.com\/blog\/manuscript-format-journal-author-instructions\/\">author guidelines<\/a> and apply any specific rules your target journal might have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Citing a specific podcast episode in Vancouver Style<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Bettiza, Sofia.
