Our Work
No two podcast projects start in quite the same place.
Some begin with an idea that needs shaping. Some with expertise that deserves a wider audience. Others start in a classroom, around a conversation or with an organisation looking for a different way to communicate.
Our role is to understand what the project is trying to do then help turn it into something people can listen to, watch, learn from or be part of.
Here are some of the podcasts, workshops and projects we’ve helped bring to life.
The work changes. The approach starts in the same place: something worth saying.
The Grumpy Social Workers
Bringing two experienced voices together for an honest conversation about social work.
When Siobhan Maclean and Soyeb Aswat wanted to turn their conversations about social work into a podcast, they partnered with One Stop Podcasts to help bring the series to life.
The Grumpy Social Workers brings together two experienced practitioners for candid conversations about the profession combining experience, humour, challenge and reflection while creating space to talk openly about the realities of social work.
With Siobhan and Soyeb recording from different locations, the production needed to make the technology disappear as much as possible and allow the conversation between them to remain at the centre of the podcast.
Our role covered the complete production of the six-episode series, from establishing and managing the remote recording workflow through to editing, audio post-production, bespoke sonic branding and preparing each episode for release.
What we delivered:
Remote Recording
A managed Riverside recording workflow designed to bring hosts and contributors together across different locations.
Audio Production
Professional editing, dialogue treatment, pacing, mixing and mastering across all six episodes while preserving the natural chemistry of the conversations.
Sonic Branding
A bespoke intro, outro and sonic identity developed around the distinctive character and personality of the podcast.
Series Production
A consistent production workflow across the complete six-episode series, from raw recordings through to finished episodes.
Release Support
Preparation of finished episodes and assets for release across audio and video platforms.
The result:
A distinctive six-episode podcast series that sounds professional without losing the humour, personality and honesty that make Siobhan and Soyeb’s conversations worth hearing.
Six episodes. Different locations. Two distinctive voices. One consistent production.

The Post-Capitalist Workplace
Creating space for a different conversation about work.
When The Kowtha Constellation wanted to create a podcast exploring the realities of inequity in the workplace and what a more humane, accessible alternative could look like they partnered with One Stop Podcasts to help bring the idea to life.
Led by founder Anuradha Kowtha, The Post-Capitalist Workplace centres lived experience, systemic analysis and compassionate thinking around how workplaces can work better for the people within them.
Our role went beyond editing episodes.
We helped shape the series structure and production approach, supported the development and flow of individual episodes, created a bespoke sonic identity and managed the audio production, publishing and distribution of the series.
What we delivered:
Series Development
Support with structure, format, episode planning and the wider production approach.
Audio Production
Professional editing, dialogue treatment, pacing, mixing and mastering across the series.
Sonic Branding
Bespoke theme music and sonic identity developed specifically around the tone and ideas of the podcast.
Publishing and Distribution
Preparation, hosting and distribution of finished episodes across podcast platforms.
Ongoing Production Support
Creative and technical support throughout the development and release of the series.
The result:
A distinctive podcast series that gives complex and sometimes difficult ideas the time and space they deserve, while creating a consistent listening experience around Anuradha’s voice and work.

Stansfield Hall Primary School
Turning a classroom into a place to create, communicate and be heard.
One Stop Podcasts worked with Year 5 pupils at Stansfield Hall Primary School for a practical Podcasting in the Classroom workshop built around one clear outcome: giving pupils the opportunity to develop and create their own podcast content.
The session introduced the class to how podcasts work before moving quickly into making. Pupils developed ideas, thought about what would make somebody want to listen, took on different roles and worked together to turn those ideas into recorded content.
The technology was part of the experience, but it wasn’t the point.
Podcasting gave pupils a reason to bring speaking, listening, writing, creativity, teamwork and digital skills together around something they could genuinely make.
What the workshop developed:
Oracy & Communication
Speaking clearly, expressing ideas, listening and responding to others.
Planning & Creativity
Developing an initial idea into something that could work as a podcast.
Collaboration
Sharing roles, responsibilities and creative decisions.
Digital Confidence
Experiencing recording and the process of turning raw audio into finished content.
Pupil Voice
Giving learners a platform for their ideas and something tangible to work towards.
The result:
A practical creative experience that allowed pupils to learn by doing and demonstrated how podcasting can give classroom communication a genuine purpose.
The podcast was the outcome. The learning went much further.
Our Podcasts
Podcasting That Works
A four-part mini-series about what makes a podcast worth making and worth listening to.
Hosted by Craig Burgess, founder of One Stop Podcasts, Podcasting That Works explores the thinking behind better podcasting.
Across four short episodes, the series looks at why podcasting can be such a powerful medium, what separates a strong show from another piece of content, how different organisations are using podcasts, and the decisions that help a series develop its own purpose, identity and staying power.
It’s a useful starting point for anyone thinking about launching a podcast, developing an existing one or simply wanting to understand the medium more clearly before pressing record.
Four episodes. Practical thinking. No unnecessary jargon.
Podcasting in the Classroom
A four-part mini-series exploring how podcasting can support communication, confidence, student voice and meaningful learning.
Hosted by Craig Burgess, founder of One Stop Podcasts, Podcasting in the Classroom explores why podcasting can be such a valuable tool in education.
Across four short episodes, the series looks at why podcasting belongs in the classroom, how it can support student voice, confidence and communication, where it can fit across the curriculum, and how schools and colleges can get started without overcomplicating the process.
It’s a useful starting point for school leaders, teachers and educators interested in exploring podcasting as a practical, purposeful way to engage students and create meaningful opportunities for them to think, speak, listen and create.
Four episodes. Practical ideas. Podcasting with purpose.
