LiSTNR celebrate Pride Month with new Come Out Wherever You Are podcast radiotoday.com.au - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from radiotoday.com.au Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
For the past six months, I’ve been in a podcast rut. Constantly stuck between wanting to know what’s going on in the world and
absolutely not wanting to know what’s going on in the world, my podcast app has become a veritable cesspit of boring content.
Half of my subscriptions have gone unlistened to (to the point that I’m deleting them en masse in my settings app when my phone storage fills up) or half-listened to, only to remain on the list and mock me for weeks. It’s been fun.
That’s why I’ve decided to download a new app which is a big deal for me since I’m a folder kind of girl and strictly have one single page of apps. Welcome to my life, LiSTNR. It’s an Aussie app, so it’s a great place to hit up if I’m in the mood for local news, humour or straight up escapism. Here are a few of my top picks if you’re in dire need of mixing things up, like me.
SCA promotes digital audio execs Grant Tothill & Chris Johnson
Following the launch of its new LiSTNR app last week, broadcaster Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) has promoted Grant Tothill and Chris Johnson to new roles within the business.
Tothill is now general manager of digital audio, in addition to head of SCA Podcasting, while Johnson takes on the newly created head of digital and innovation role.
Johnson will continue to oversee the Digital Leadership Team and manage the roadmap of SCA’s core digital products including LiSTNR, according to a statement.
He will also now be responsible for establishing and managing SCA’s local and international digital partnerships, and will drive internal digital knowledge, collaboration and innovation to ensure SCA stays ahead of emerging trends and opportunities in the digital audio space.
SCA launches LiSTNR app for radio, podcasts, music & news, effectively ending PodcastOne Australia branding
Southern Cross Austereo’s suite of digital audio brands has a new home from today, with the launch of LiSTNR.
LiSTNR will house SCA’s podcasts, radio streaming, digital radio stations, music and news offerings under one banner.
The launch effectively wraps up SCA’s PodcastOne Australia branding, with original SCA podcasts, such as
Hamish & Andy, Just The Gist and
The Briefing to now be branded as LiSTNR productions.
Its association with the US PodcastOne, however, continues and a selection of PodcastOne US titles will be available on LiSTNR and promoted on SCA’s media assets.
