During the pandemic, SBS launched a related series of daily news podcasts that are tailored to the needs of both English learners and people with disabilities. These new offerings include the “News in English” and “On the Money” podcasts, providing accessible and informative content to a diverse audience. Every episode caters to the different interests of their audience. It provides quick takes on what’s happening in the world and market news.
Their “News in English” podcast includes a five-minute-a-day wrap that showcases the most impactful news stories in a digestible format for everyday listeners. This initiative seeks to assist English learners in improving their language skills while staying informed about local and global events. By prioritizing concise, jargon-free speech, SBS helps listeners identify key messages at a glance.
In addition to the general news wrap, SBS has launched “On the Money,” a ten-minute podcast that focuses on finance and business news. Developing Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves carries you through this enlightening podcast. Join us for timely takes on shifting market dynamics, emerging economic trends, and helpful financial tips! This program is designed for anyone looking to expand their knowledge of the financial ecosystem. It breaks down difficult concepts so as not to inundate them with obscure technical language.
Both podcasts are on all major podcast platforms, giving commuters and on-the-go listeners real-time access to the top stories. This flexibility ensures that individuals can tune in at their leisure, whether during commutes or while engaging in daily activities.
SBS is firmly committed to the ideals of inclusivity. They produce learner English and disability-focused news podcasts. By producing materials that are both educational and easy to comprehend, SBS hopes to promote a more educated public.
