The Australian launches new podcast, The Front

The first daily news podcast from The Australian has launched today called, The Front. 

Hosted by The Australian’s Editorial Director Claire Harvey, the 15-minute podcast will feature each day’s essential page one stories, journalists’ candid take on the issues that matter, and behind-the-scenes insight from The Australian’s newsrooms. 

“Everything we do at The Australian is about storytelling – and The Front is an exciting chance to introduce our journalists to new audiences,” said Harvey. 

“Every day our newsrooms hum with debate and discussion as we work out how to break news and bring it to life. I feel really lucky to be able to talk every day with this passionate bunch of journos and to share those conversations with everyone.” 

News Corp Australia’s Head of Audio Del Fordham said: “We’re thrilled to be able to launch The Front, a daily news podcast that perfectly complements The Australian’s award-winning network of on-demand audio.”

From politics to world news and society, a range of experts from The Australian will be contributing to The Front including the likes of Yoni Bashan, Troy Bramston, Trent Dalton, Nikki Gemmell, Jessica Halloran, Paul Kelly, Sharri Markson, Rosemary Neill, Caroline Overington, Cameron Stewart, Paige Taylor and Hedley Thomas.
