Abstract

The article seeks to comprehend how social voices linked to different semantic-axiological/ideological positions (FARACO, 2022) are represented and orchestrated in the Mano a Mano podcast, hosted by rapper Mano Brown. To do so, it draws upon the perspective of dialogic analysis of utterances developed by intellectuals associated with the so-called Bakhtin Circle (VOLÓCHINOV, 2017; BAKHTIN, 2016), focusing, as an analytical essay, on the sixth episode of the first season of Mano a Mano, in which Brown interviews councilman Fernando Holiday. The paper demonstrates that the dialogization of voices linked to diverse semantic-axiological positions constitutes, besides being a characteristic stylistic trait of Mano a Mano, a discursive resource through which the podcast’s utterances access politically and socially significant debates and establish discursive exchanges related to the political field.
