The Best and Brightest Podcast Events Coming Soon



Forget TV, Film and radio: 2019 is all about the podcast.

It's easier than ever before for anyone with a microphone and internet connection to record one and share it with the world. But, there are few that make it into the mainstream to become widely adored, global phenomenons. Topics from serial killers to motherhood, hip-hop to eating have been covered - so there's something for absolutely everyone.

Lucky for us, over the last few years, some of the best and brightest podcasts around have decided to take the show on the road. We've seen the likes of the hilarious My Dad Wrote a Porno, and the ever intriguing Welcome To Night Vale entertain thousands of fans in recent years.

So what's coming up soon in the world of live podcasts? We've collated the best shows on sale right here for you to check out. Maybe you'll discover your new latest serial?

 

No Jumper

 

Love hip-hop? Love podcasts? You must have listened to No Jumper then, right? Founded in 2011 by hip-hop enthusiast Adam John Grandmaison, the podcast began as a blog that published reviews on albums from emerging underground rap artists. In 2015 the blog transitioned into a podcast series.

As a result, No Jumper grew to become one of the most visible flagships of underground hip-hop culture. Marked by Grandmaison’s knack for breaking up-and-coming artists with captivating interviews, the No Jumper podcast and YouTube channel has created a serious platform for underground artists.

No Jumper will take over London XOYO for three nights in July.

Jon Ronson

 

Critically acclaimed writer, journalist and documentary filmmaker Jon Ronson is possibly best known for his books 'The Psychopath Test' and 'The Men Who Stare at Goats'. In 2017 he began the podcast, 'The Butterfly Effect', which focuses on the subject of internet pornography, and more recently released 'The Last Days of August'.

In this brand new show, Jon will recount his recent adventures through his two podcasts. It’ll be a mysterious, funny, sad tale about kindness, violence, bad thoughts, and the wonders of remaining curious. There will be new stories, never before heard audio, some very strange (PG rated) bespoke film clips, and maybe some special guests too.

The tour commences at the Corn Exchange, Cambridge on the 6th May, and culminates at the Edinburgh Assembly Rooms on the 27th May.

Do The Right Thing

 

Award-winning panel show podcast Do The Right Thing has had seven successful series and four specials since its debut in 2011. The hilarious, occasionally absurd and frequently obscene panel game sees comedians try to work out the right thing to do in some weird and wild situations.

One minute it might be guessing how to escape if they’re buried alive. The next they could be agony-aunting someone whose cat is a bit stand-offish. So, expect the unexpected, and plenty of laughs.

Do The Right Thing will be live at The Phoenix in London this March and April.
