The Sporting Blog Podcast
Georgie Frost - Broadcasting, Podcasting, Coaching and Women in sport
Episode notes
Today’s podcast guest is the multi-talented journalist and broadcaster Georgie Frost
Georgie Frost is a sports and finance journalist and broadcaster. She cut her teeth at the sharp end of sports journalism as a local journalist in Newcastle, before moving South and beginning her journey on air with BBC Radio. She wears a number of hats but is currently knocking download home runs out of the park with the ThisIsMoney Podcast.
We invited George on to have a chat about her life in sport, where the future of broadcast is headed and of course, her favourite dog.
Things we talk about on today’s podcast;
Local journalism in Newcastle and interviewing Roy Keane!
Working as a woman in sport in a traditional ‘hotbed’ town like Newcastle
Coaching Football and why she decided to get coaching qualifications
Observations about barriers to entry for women coaches (TBF this was mainly Oli ranting)
Podcasting, broadcasting and why she loves radio
Previously having a Wimbledon season ticket, missing football and how sport has brought her family closer together
Favourite Dog (2 in this case)
Was great to chat with Georgie and we hope to have her back on in the future to see if the dial is moved on any issues at all.
