Coming soon... Tables Turned

On Monday 11th November a brand new series called Tables Turned will be launching. Yes another podcast to add to the hundreds of thousands out there. But I think this one is a little bit special. I admire the people who provide others with a platform when it’s never been more important to be able to do so and asking the right questions is at a premium. In a time when there is so much out there with podcasts, 24 hour TV, social media, streaming, gaming that is all calling for our attention. They are ones who make us care and bring us closer to the people whose stories need telling. This is my why. My name's Dan McLaren and this series I’ll be talking to people who I’ve got to know and admire to find out how they do it. What are the secrets to opening up those small windows into a life or a moment. Next Monday there will be not one but two new episodes celebrating those behind the microphone. David Speed and Adam Brazier from the no.1 business podcast, Creative Rebels. They launched in spectacular fashion in January this year with not one or two podcast, but FOUR and reached no.1 in the business podcast list on iTunes! They included huge guests including author/podcaster Emma Gannon, someone I already follow. Since then they've gone onto interview Reggie Yates, Toure and many others. I find out about how they went about launching a no.1 podcast (well worth taking notes!) and tips they've picked up about interviewing as they've been on this amazing journey. David Garrido, presenter on SkySports and La LIga podcast host. David is one of the nicest most chatty people you could hope to sit down with for an hour on a bank holiday in a bar at Waterloo Station! He has some fantastic stories from his time in radio and TV presenting including his first (and worst) interview with a famous then-Spurs player. It's been onwards and upwards since then. Between now and Christmas you can expect to hear from sports presenters including Faye Carruthers (who was at this year's Women's World Cup), passionate motorsport expert Alexandra Legioux, BBC Final Score voice, ex-Audioboom Head of Sports and now Sports Journalism lecturer Marc Webber, podcaster and long time friend who is becoming a great voice for sports graduates Ed Bowers.... and more to come.
