To counter this, SBS has launched a new initiative, helping make news more accessible by providing a range of short-form daily podcasts. Chief among them is “On the Money.” This ten-minute daily finance and business news summary hosted by the Special Broadcasting Service’s Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves. With this podcast, we want to make sure you’re up to date with what’s been going on in the fast-paced financial world.
Besides On the Money, SBS offers a five-minute daily news round-up that’s great for intermediate students, “News in English.” This program is specifically designed for English learners and those with disabilities. Most importantly, it opens up critical news and information to an untapped audience. Both podcasts are designed with different audiences in mind, so there’s something for everyone to get a quick download on what’s happening in the world.
It’s simple for listeners to find these podcasts through the SBS home page or by subscribing through their favorite podcasting apps. Visit SBS News Podcasts to explore our entire collection of news podcasts. It has an amazing range of audio programming, from “On the Money” to the “News in English.” The addition of these podcasts is one example of SBS’s dedication to inclusivity and different modes of communication.
For anyone into finance, “On the Money” is a quick hit to get you up to speed on what’s happening in the markets and with important business news. The podcast’s convenient format lets listeners get the critical information they need in a way that easily adapts to even the busiest of lifestyles. The cover art for the podcast, available here.
“News in English” makes it easy to understand for those who would have difficulty with more advanced news stories. It’s a terrific resource for English learners, offering clear, concise summaries of timely topics, all while fostering language skills. The thumbnail for this podcast can be found here.
SBS’s audience-first approach is evident in its creative execution as well. To be sure, the community development corporation’s commitment to serving all community members—regardless of their background or mobility—runs deeper than this new tech surrogate. It does this by developing targeted messages for priority audiences.
