Earshot Creative Review, June 2011

Earshot with Steve Martin

This month we celebrate TalkSPORT’s remarkable achievements at the Sony Radio Academy Awards with senior writer and producer Jonathan Young.

Jonathan has been one of the leading creative forces on the station since it launched and in this month’s podcast (recorded before TalkSPORT gained further honours at the Radio Academy Production Awards) you’ll hear him play some of TalkSPORT’s brave, fun promos, describe how they make this stuff and how they get away with it.

You’ll also hear Peter Gordon of 96.4 Eagle Radio try to help us with our Hobsons Mystery Voice competition, a funny ad from Peperami and some music inspired by the London Olympics – already.
