Has the Podcast ship sailed…?
<p>Four months in to my time at CEMVO Scotland I am yet to make any great headway on one of my tasks — starting a podcast series. It’s not that I don’t like the idea, or even that I think it won’t work, but there do seem to be a number of barriers in the way, and a nagging sense of not being 100% sure why we are even doing it. It must have seemed like a great thing to include in the funding bid, but now that we have the cash no-one seems exactly clear on what the podcast is, or what it’s for, or how it will work. Over to me!</p>
<p>There are clear barriers to entry for a new podcast, most notably that it’s a ridiculously crowded marketplace. If Richard Osman was starting a murder mystery podcast, he’d be alright. CEMVO do not quite have his clout, though you will notice I am deliberately avoiding any “Pointless” puns. Beyond issues of visibility there’s the nuts and bolts of the thing. How do we record it? Do we hire Abbey Road? Will Paul McCartney sing our jingle? Or do we try to do it over Zoom and using free bits online?</p>
