    Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye

    After 4 years, 8 seasons and over 500 episodes, Rockpool Podcasts has come to an end. We've had a fantastic run, won awards, received commendations from the Scottish Parliament, Auditor General, MSPs and have been endorsed by press, industry and individuals & establishments we hold in high esteem. We've interviewed & hosted some incredible & inspiring people, organisations & events; worked with a team of truly talented broadcasters & producers; and have consistently evolved our productions, app, VR studio & social media content to entertain our listeners, followers & Friends of The Pod. Thank you to every single person who has been a guest on the show, to everyone who has produced an episode of the show, to those from far & wide who have worked in collaboration with us, to our listeners and to those individuals who have always supported & championed our work. As bittersweet as this moment is to say goodbye, my work in audio journalism, broadcasting & podcasting will be continuing into the future with the podcasts & projects I'm producing across my network at Jonsan Media. And I for one, can't wait to see how it all turns out. I've been your host, John McBlain and for one last time, thank you for listening to Rockpool Podcasts.

    Introducing... Would You Lie To Me?!

    Hello Hello Hello and welcome to 'Would You Lie To Me' a new feature of Rockpool Podcasts hosted and produced by our Season 8 Editorial Team - Ethan Mitchell, Iona Atkins, Robert Myles and Dana Shaw! As part of our introduction to our new team, we let them loose in Rockpool Studios and as you'll hear, let them run riot on mic to produce their first episode as a group! Not in the slightest bit inspired by a TV gameshow, the team try and out-deceive through some rather questionable storytelling so see who is telling the truth amongst some tall tales! Expect strong language and hijinks on this episode and get ready for the return of The Shade Button and The Shame Bell! Hurrah!
