So you want to make a podcast? Join our next Broad Generation Podathon.

The Podathon will be held at the new Broad Generation premises on St Kilda Road, where attendees will be able to view and book the facilities, including two fully equipped studios and meeting rooms. This is where Broad Radio is produced and where the team creates podcast series, including She Did, You Can with George McEncroe and Jo Stanley, Manna of All Things for Dan and Dani from The Block, and Lay Down the Law with Maurice Blackburn Lawyers.

What you can expect

If you think your hilarious monologues need to be captured for the masses, or you’d like to position yourself as a thought leader in your industry, the inaugural Broad Generation Podathon will get you up to speed. 

We’re here to answer the question – what does it take to make your podcasting dreams a reality?

This is the first event from Broad Generation, which is a full-service podcast and livestream facility. 

It’s tailored to the needs of everyone: from a couple of mates keen to facilitate on-air banter, right through to experienced on-air talent who want to hone their skills and tap into other industry experts.

There will be a series of classroom sessions where we can share knowledge and ideas, then a series of 1:1 sessions where you move through the different stages of creating a podcast. 

You’ll receive advice and training every step of the way, and the end result is a short pilot podcast episode that you can take away with you (along with a whole new suite of skills!). 

We’ll finish up on our rooftop to decompress and chat!
