TWENTY YEARS OF JOURNALISM, NOW BEHIND THE MIC

Podcasts have become one of the fastest-growing ways media organisations, brands and independent creators reach an audience, and that shift rewards genuine journalism experience over technical polish alone. A well-produced podcast turns storytelling into something people actually make time for, whether they’re commuting, exercising or travelling. It creates a familiar, trusted voice for your organisation in a way that shorter content rarely can.

Let’s talk about your podcast

  • CLIENT SUCCESS STORY

    We engaged Eric to train our team on podcast presenting, which was met with great feedback and enthusiasm. He really helped them understand audiences, shape their messaging and develop their presenting style.
    Cripps Leadership Advisors

Twenty years working as a journalist and producer, including producing and narrating a BBC Sounds documentary marking two decades since the Buncefield explosion, shapes every episode structure, every interview and every edit, the kind of editorial judgement that comes from having actually worked a story, not just recorded one. Recent projects span leadership and training podcasts, documentary style audio, internal communications series, educational podcasts and charity storytelling.

SHOWCASE YOUR EXPERTISE

Professional podcasts give your people a platform to explain what they do, helping audiences understand your organisation and trust it before they ever enquire.

Reach More People

Audio fits into commutes, gym sessions and dog walks, reaching people through their headphones long after a video or a written report has been closed down.

TURN LISTENERS INTO ACTION

Support recruitment, brief your own staff and build a loyal audience with episodes planned around the message rather than recorded and hoped for afterwards.

RECENT AUDIO WORK

Podcast production is a smaller part of the business, but produced to the same standard as everything else. Projects include leadership and training podcasts, documentary style audio, internal communications series, educational podcasts and charity storytelling. Most recently, BBC Sounds have commissioned and broadcast a documentary series, drawing on two decades of journalism experience to bring genuine editorial depth to audio storytelling rather than technical polish alone.
