They are calling it the podcast election, the humble podcast has become where political and cultural moments are made.


In this episode, we sit down with James Marriott, the man who might just be the world’s #1 podcast expert.


He’s the voice behind one of The Times' most influential columns, where his reviews can make or break a podcast show.


We uncover:

  • The reason why podcasts are now driving political agendas.
  • How US and UK podcasts are vastly different
  • And how James went from a nobody on Twitter to catching the attention of top journalists at just 23 



Through his columns on technology and culture he has become the voice of a new generation, and perhaps his most superpower is explaining new generations to older generations. 

This conversation perhaps takes on an extra dimension, when you know it was recorded before the US election - it makes the insights seem even more pertinent.
