Show Notes

In a RadioToday Programme Extra we bring you an aural treat from Jon Holmes and his team. This magnificent audio production was played at the end of the 2020 Radio Academy Festival, providing a comedic take on the sessions delegates had heard through the week, skewering the audio recordings about radio and our industry.

So far The Skewer has won a Gold award at the New York Festivals, a British Podcast Award and a comedy award at the Audio Production Awards. Creator Jon Holmes combines award winning audio production and sound design with brand new audio talent to produce something quite unlike anything else.
