Iain Macintosh - How the Pandemic changed how we listen to Podcasts: The Halcyon Show
1A segment from my full interview with the current Managing Editor of Audio for The Athletic, former CEO of Muddy Knees Media, author of titles such as "Football Manager Stole My Life" and the creator of the fabulous FM Newcastle Challenge. "The Lord of the Games" himself, Iain Macintosh, where we discuss his thoughts on how to begin a successful career in audio content creation.
We discuss his career, the highs and lows, we talk about his current role, his advice and insight into the art of audio content creation as an experienced generator and salesman of that type of content, his passion and love for gaming, football, writing and producing, and so much more!!
According to Wikipedia - "Iain Macintosh is a British journalist, author and podcaster.
He has worked for ESPN,[1] and has been the editor at The Set Pieces and written for The Guardian.[2] He has also had articles in The Blizzard[3] and Sports Illustrated,[4] The Anfield Wrap,[5] and has appeared on the BBC television programme Premier League World.[6]
He has written numerous articles and books about the computer game Football Manager.[7][8][9][10][11] He also authored a series of sports book entitled ‘Everything you would like to know about..’ with topics including football, golf, and cricket.[12]
Macintosh was a co-founder of Muddy Knees production which produces The Totally Football Show, an off-shoot of The Guardian’s Football Weekly podcast which he, James Richardson, and producer Ben Green left in order to create their own product ahead of the 2017-18 season.[13] The new shows attracted five million downloads in their first two months.[14] and claim over 500,000 a week.[15] As well as the flagship ‘Totally Football Show’, the ‘Totally Football League show’ was presented by Macintosh as a weekly podcast co-produced by AudioBoom - who reportedly saw their profits increase by 329% at the start of the 2017 season.[16] Macintosh also appeared at Totally Football Live shows held at venues such as the O2, in London and Birmingham's Glee club.[17][18] In 2020 Muddy Knees Media became part of The Athletic.[19]"
And incredibly funny, insightful and intelligent man, not only will you be blown away by the anecdotes and advice he has, but his passion and enthusiasm is unparalleled. I hope you enjoy!!
