For Episode 5 of the PPA 30 Under 30 podcast, in partnership with Shutterstock Editorial, Jess spoke with media analyst and one third of Media Voices, Esther Kezia Thorpe. After a number of years working in publishing and media, Esther now freelances, with a wide range of skills, including writing, podcast editing, design and marketing.
In 2017, Esther along with two others, launched the Media Voices podcast, a weekly look at all the news and views from across the media world, featuring interviews with leading figures from media and publishing businesses. Three years later and the Media Voices team not only host a podcast, but publish a daily newsletter, The Media Round Up and host the Publisher Podcast Awards, which are taking place this year for the second time. Esther and I covered all things from how it felt to win a PPA 30 Under 30 award amid such a tumultuous year, the evolution of Media Voices, 2020 media trends that have caught her eye and her dream podcast guest.
