Sky and HBO, GB News and Muslims plus Xmas Telly
Faraz Osman, Scott Bryan and Jamie East join Matt
News from Sky this week that they’ve done a deal with WBD to keep HBO content on their service. It’ll be moving from Sky Atlantic to Max (with ads) as part of the bundle. Our guests Gold Wala’s Faraz Osman and TV critic Scott Bryan talk about the benefits. Oh, and Media Clubber Adam Bowie’s written a great blog post about it too.
Also on the show, Faraz talks to us about some research that says half of all stories about Muslims are on GB News and they’re not particularly positive. Plus Scott tells us his Christmas high and low lights whilst telling Faraz what the Radio Times says about his Christmas show with Ken Bruce.
Also joining us is the Daily Mail’s Head of Podcasts Jamie East who tells us the differences in perception either side of the pond. We also have a chat about the latest Succession play in the Murdoch household. Likely not a fun Christmas lunch.
All that plus a quiz about head hunting.

And some AOB, one of the things I’m involved with is a great service called podfollow. It’s an easy way to link to podcasts in social media. But this week we’ve added a feature that lets you see the chart positions of your (or anyone’s) podcasts. Check it out at podfollow.com/charts.
