Shoutout Network Festival: Celebrating Women in Podcasting, Audio, Broadcasting and Radio

ShoutOut Network is an inclusive podcast network based in South London. Established in 2014, the network was the catalyst for the huge surge in Black British podcasting with award-winning shows like Melanin Millennial and Mostly Lit.

ShoutOut Network grew rapidly and has become one of the leading voices on diversity within the audio and broadcast industry as well as creating physical space for creators from underrepresented backgrounds to come and create their podcasts for free.
