What makes a museum tick? That’s the concept behind “Museum Confidential,” a podcast carried by NPR and created by Oklahoma’s Philbrook Museum of Art in collaboration with Public Radio Tulsa. What started as a special project as part of an exhibit has become a popular podcast with over 100 episodes banked over seven seasons.

Host Jeff Martin and co-creator Scott Gregory dig into museum practices, art world issues, and culture makers. Martin sat down with The Conversation to lift the curtain on the process.
