But one of the big announcements that came out of the event was that Edison Research is launching their Edison Podcast Metrics in the UK. In the US, Edison Research has been producing what have effectively…

Ofcom UK Podcast Survey 2023
Ofcom has just published its latest Audio and Podcasts survey data for 2023. They tend to just publish the raw data tables, so I like to dig into the data and get into what the data actually means. I’ve done this for the last couple of years, and you can expect many charts and graphs.…

Ken Bruce
For some, the news that Ken Bruce is leaving Radio 2 is akin to the ravens leaving the Tower of London. He’s been on the mid-morning show pretty much non-stop since 1986 – a time when the Radio 2 schedule started with Derek Jameson at breakfast, and following Ken came Jimmy Young, David Jacobs, Gloria…

New Year’s Day 2023 – Radio Times
A final TV selection for this year’s Festive season – mostly because there’s some pretty decent TV for New Year’s Day when the schedulers reckon that the nation’s collective hangovers mean that most of us aren’t going anyway too far from the sofa, even if the intentions to be better in 2023 are there. And…

Boxing Day 2022 – Radio Times
Ideally you want to at least think about spending some time outside today. But you’re probably not going anywhere by train, which might make some of the Premier League games a particular challenge for away fans today. So good luck with those doing family trips across the town or across the country. But for those…

Christmas Day 2022 – Radio Times
Congratulations on making it through to Christmas Day! While the family arguments begin early, I’m here to hold your hand through your TV and radio entertainment options, to make sure that you’re not stuck watching a celebrity special gameshow when you could be watching something much better (i.e. anything). Certainly, my tastes may not be…

Christmas Eve 2022 – Radio Times
If it’s Christmas then that means I get out my Post-it notes and marker pen to run through the double issue of the Radio Times to see what TV and radio I personally think are worthwhile. I’m not kidding myself that we’re all limited to what the major linear channels are showing. Maybe you’re binging…

Read Those Podcasting Contracts Carefully
Today’s edition of Podnews, splashes with a report about a podcast called Sex, Lies and DM Slides being relaunched by Spotify without the original hosts. One of those original hosts who created the show is upset and has complained on Instagram about the move. I have no knowledge of this particular case nor the agreement…
