The Price of BBC Cuts & Tortoise Turning 3 - a podcast by PPM Production Limited

Are the problems at the BBC’s We Are England strand the sign of things to come? The Guardian’s Jim Waterson explains.

As the newsroom startup raises another £10m, the co-founder of Tortoise, James Harding talks to Matt Deegan about slow news, startups and paid memberships.

Elsewhere, Paramount Plus is coming - how does it fit into the streaming wars? TV indie chief Cat Lewis (Nine Lives Media) fills us in.

And, in the Media Quiz... we discover the old dogs learning new tricks. And vice versa.

A Rethink Audio production, produced by Matt Hill with support from Phoebe Adler Ryan.
