Thousands of hours of podcasts are produced each week around the world, and the art form is evolving rapidly from the standard “two people have a chat on a topic they love” trope. Podcasters are diversifying their content across platforms and finding new, creative ways to engage their audiences.
In another lunchtime edition of Meet the Creators, Walkley award-winning cross-platform creator Marc Fennell (SBS host, Stuff The British Stole, Nut Jobs, It Burns), Jesse Klass, Head of Digital Content at Fremantle Media (and co-executive producer of Chasing Charlie), and independent podcaster Marlee Silva (Tiddas 4 Tiddas, Always Was, Always Will Be Our Stories, Chicks and Balls The Podcast), discuss all things audio storytelling with AFTRS Radio alum Alex Mitchell (Digital Product Manager, LiSTNR).
