As part of this transformational effort, SBS has launched a series of daily news podcasts specifically created to serve the many different audiences SBS reaches. Perhaps the most exciting offering is “On the Money.” This SBS finance and business news wrap, hosted by SBS Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves, airs every weekday. This effort aims to provide short, practical, and easy-to-understand educational material. Interested listeners can find it conveniently on their preferred podcast app.
The “On the Money” podcast delivers essential updates from the finance and business sectors, helping listeners stay informed about the latest developments. With each episode only ten minutes long, it’s the perfect choice for anyone looking for fast-paced information without getting bogged down in too much detail. Gonçalves, in his role as Finance Editor, helps listeners make sense of it all, focusing on the stories that matter most to your wallet.
Besides “On the Money,” SBS offers up a five-minute daily news wrap. These educator previews are designed specifically for English learners and for students with disabilities. This short but mighty podcast brings the headlines down to earth so everyone can understand the news that matters most. More importantly, it presents some pretty critical information in a really digestible way. The five-minute length means you can jump in and out as a listener, getting the important highlights without dedicating a huge amount of time.
SBS recognizes the growing demand for on-demand content, making these podcasts available through its website as well as popular podcast applications. This flexibility means that users can listen whenever it’s most convenient for them, such as on commutes, lunch breaks, or while working around the house. The production of these different news podcasts highlights SBS’s initiative to provide diverse communities with different styles of news content to meet their needs and preferences.
The podcasts are designed to be brief and complete, allowing even the busiest of listeners to stay connected to what’s happening today. Each program is produced in English. This technique maximizes SBS’s ability to serve diverse demographics by keeping it accessible to everyone regardless of age. Whether it’s through the inclusion of tailored content such as financial news or bilingual and multicultural programming, the commitment to inclusivity is central to SBS.
