Idea
In 2015 Marcus assembled a team to launch a podcast about gadgets, tech and trending culture. The bet: as streaming solved music, people would go looking for personality and conversation, and short-form social clips could feed a long-form show.
Execution
Weekly long-form episodes recorded in our studio, cut down into a relentless stream of vertical clips: jokes, anecdotes and viral facts built for Reels, Facebook and TikTok. Every technique now in the POD System was tested here first.
Result
A British Podcast Award. Number one in the gadget charts, and the front page of Apple Podcasts twice. 430,000,000+ views and a 1.8 million follower audience across platforms, with single clips clearing 11.1M, 8.3M and 3.5M. A young professional audience that brands from Apple to LEGO have paid to reach.
