🎙️ In this special episode, Martin Colton and Jake invite you behind the mission, the dream, and the challenge of taking The Martin Talk Show back to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2026. Help Us Amplify ChangeMakers @ The Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2026 | Episode 525 The Edinburgh Fringe is one of the most exciting creative gatherings in the world, but for many independent artists, performers, writers, comedians, musicians, theatre-makers and changemakers, being heard can be one of the biggest challenges of all. That is why The Martin Talk Show is seeking support to build a live daily podcast hub at Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2026: a place where creative voices can be amplified, stories can be shared, conversations can be captured, and artists can reach audiences far beyond the streets of Edinburgh. In this episode, host Martin Colton is joined by co-host Jake as they discuss why this campaign matters, what the podcast has already built through previous Fringe coverage, and how support from listeners, artists, sponsors and the wider creative community can help turn this next chapter into something truly meaningful. The goal is simple but powerful: to create a professional, welcoming and accessible space for daily interviews, livestreams, audience conversations, captioned clips, and digital promotion for the people bringing brave, funny, moving, challenging and inspiring work to the Fringe. Your support can help us secure a venue, improve livestream and recording quality, support production costs, promote independent artists, and create a lasting archive of conversations from one of the most important arts festivals in the world. Whether you donate, choose a reward, share the campaign, sponsor an episode, or simply help spread the word, you become part of the journey. Because creativity deserves more than noise. It deserves a microphone. 🎭 Support the Crowdfunder:https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/amplifying-change-makers-the-edinburgh-fringe 🌍 Connect with Martin:www.themartintalkshow.com 🎧 Watch previous Edinburgh Fringe conversations:2024 Fringe Interviews:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGnZRd991NmpNSbZkVmbBo1XgWv-scQv2&si=-9Q6Pbhp4-RgtzwH 2025 Fringe Episodes:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGnZRd991NmqtEFKGXGIbu_Ez2FQtFYZ3&si=ZVCrxv4nVukxI0dz Edinburgh Fringe 2026 Preview Series:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGnZRd991NmoilhuluZwsGrdB1nBLoiyB&si=Ey_22oO2Vo9EYWy2 As always, connect with Martin via:www.themartintalkshow.com #TheMartinTalkShow #MartinColton #Jake #EdinburghFringe #EdFringe2026 #EdinburghFringeFestival #AmplifyingChangeMakers #Podcast #PodcastLife #CreativeVoices #IndependentArtists #Theatre #Comedy #PerformingArts #ArtsFestival #FringeFestival #Crowdfunder #SupportTheArts #CreativeCommunity #ArtistsSupportingArtists #LivePodcast #PodcastHub #Storytelling #Changemakers #ArtsAndCulture #FringeArtists #CreativeJourney #BehindTheScenes #YouTubePodcast #MakeThisABetterWorld
