The long-running show The Media Podcast has been relaunched as The Media Club, with media consultant Matt Deegan as host.
The podcast, in various forms, has been publishing episodes since 2006, making it one of the U.K.’s longest-running shows. It brings together media correspondents and practitioners to talk about the week’s media news. Its rebrand to The Media Club is designed to reflect that much of the show’s audience work in media themselves and that they should feel like participants as well as listeners.
The relaunched show has also expanded its output with full video episodes on YouTube, content across X, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn , plus a website and newsletter at themediaclub.com.
Producer Matt Hill says: “We’ve always had feedback and insight from listeners who work all across the media, from recent graduates to channel controllers. With the relaunch, we wanted to better reflect the whole community, and we think The Media Club does that”.
Host Matt Deegan says: “It’s a privilege to talk to media experts and those creating great content for audiences, whether on air, in print or on digital platforms every week. Media touches entertainment, business, politics — it’s great to be able to cover it all on The Media Club”.
The podcast is produced by Rethink Audio, with the rebrand led by podcast marketing agency Podcast Discovery and recorded at PodShop.
