For 2024, I brought the Ken On Food podcast back to life with a short series called Food In 5 Minutes. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
After a one-year run in that particular format, it’s now parked, with a view to returning later this year in a new seasonal-style approach with longer episodes over a shorter run. I also plan on returning to work on a number of previous podcast projects, including the UR Podcast series produced with Urban Gym. 2025 seems like a good year to tackle all things podcasting.
If starting a podcast in 2025 has been on your agenda, then you’re in luck.
