SBS Expands Accessibility with Engaging Daily News Podcasts

SBS has expanded its media footprint even further by launching a new line of daily news podcasts targeted to different demographics. Listen now on “On the Money” podcast for a short 10-minute finance & business recap with SBS Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves. There’s a five-minute news wrap “In English,” tailored especially for English as a second language learners and people with disabilities.

On the Money provides quick-hitting, highly insightful updates on the movement of financial markets and growing areas of business. Gonçalves is an accomplished journalist with years of experience covering finance and development. Like a great teacher, he makes complicated subjects simple, fun and informative. We know you’re busy, so this podcast is made for time-crunched professionals. It provides all the information you need, without the need for several hours of long newscasts.

The “News in English” podcast addresses the information gap for English learners and those with disabilities, providing them with essential news content in a digestible five-minute format. This project, in turn, underlines SBS’s core mission to ensure that all Australians can access and understand the news. It ensures that nobody misses out on crucial information based on their language proficiency or disability.

Listeners can find both podcasts on all major podcast apps and right at SBS’s website. You can find their dedicated department for news podcasts at SBS News Podcasts, where listeners can discover more offerings.

Along with the visual identity of these podcasts, it gives them an edge on having broader appeal. The stimulating logo for “On the Money” that you see above has nothing to do with money but symbolizes news in the English language, is illustrated by this unique image here. These designs attract listeners and signal to users the high-quality content that NPR produces.

By expanding its podcast series, SBS highlights its commitment to serving all audiences. The addition of content expressly created for English learners and individuals with disabilities shows smart thinking about accessibility from the start.
