Podcasts I’ve made where people just… chat
Chat shows
No passion no point
I started this podcast off with bbc studioworks in the summer of 2020. The premise: boxing promoter eddie hearn talks to leaders of their fields about how they got to where they are and what makes them tick.
The first series had us meet KSI, Wayne Rooney, Katie Taylor, Sadiq Khan, Noel Gallagher, David Gandy, stacey dooley and kano.
it took us across the ocean to new york and washington, recording wherever the stars would have us and following the twists and turns eddie’s jet setting and in this seres at least, very eventful life.
In a highlight of my broadcast career i was there in madison square garden when anthony joshua was beaten by andy ruiz junior. We were due to interview AJ after his triumphant first fight in america…
we had to have a major change of plan. the audio below is how we handled that and how we got first hand access to what eddie would do when confronted with that hurdle.
The diplomat
Tv series companion podcast for netflix:
Presented by Ayeesha Hazarika.
I recorded the location interviews, ran the vo sessions and handled all the post production for this 6 episode companion podcast for netflix.
The show combines cast interviews with conversations with experts in the real life field of diplomacy to add colour to the world of the show.
Late night mash
The podcast that the rest is politics nabbed the idea from (probably).
Having previously worked with the mash report’s executive producer Chris Stott on tech tech boom and having just come off another dave tie in hypothetical (below), i was approached to make this podcast.
The idea was to pose big culture war topics to two comedians from opposite sides of the spectrum and see if common ground, or at least common gags could be found.
James acaster and josh widdecombe are dominant forces in the podcast landscape, so when Hat Trick asked me to find a way to get their tv show for dave ‘hypothetical’ to work out there in the pod-wilderness i jumped at it.
In this show, we turn the tables and force josh and james to answer all the stupid questions they’ve made other people deal with on telly.
i wrote the scripts, recorded it and edited it.
