SBS podcasting is launching a podcast for the television current affairs program Insight.
The Insight podcast with the television host, Kumi Taguchi, was announced at the multicultural and First Nations broadcaster's 2024 Upfront in Sydney.
It is also launching Seen with Yumi Stynes, Australia Fair and the dark history of the White Australia Policy, Say Kimchi, and Everything We Need explores rural communities dealing with climate change.
The broadcaster also confirmed it will now offer pre, mid, and post-roll advertising and sponsorship on its slate of audio content.
SBS director of audio and language content, David Hua, said the network was incredibly proud of its distinctive audio offering:
“Our podcast network is unlike anything else in the Australian landscape, and we believe there will be strong audiences for the Insight podcast along with the rest of our slate," he said.
“This year we also were proud to launch podcasts like the bilingual series The Ugly Ducklings of Italian Cuisine, Bad English with Ivan Aristeguieta, Should You Really Eat That? by food writer Lee Tran Lam, and Signal award-winning series The Idiom.
“We’re incredibly proud of the work we have done expanding in the podcast space, particularly our inclusion of pitches received from the public for three years running which has allowed us to create rich and nuanced stories of culture and language that no other network can offer.”
The broadcaster was named the 2022 Australian Podcast Publisher of the Year at the Australian Podcast Awards.
