Bauer’s latest podcast launch – The Overshare with Gemma Atkinson – went straight to the top of the podcast charts today taking the coveted Number One spot on the Apple podcasts countdown ahead of The Rest is Politics, The News Agents and The Diary of a CEO.
The new podcast from Hits Radio presenter Gemma Atkinson launched on Thursday 21st September and features some jaw-dropping, tear-jerking anecdotes alongside some proper laugh-out loud moments. It’s a safe space for Gemma and her audience to share their stories and secrets from first date disasters or how your other half was during labour to the really big topics including body image, parenting and coping with grief. Gemma will be sharing her own stories alongside the listeners and you can find out what The Overshare is all about from the first episode which explores ‘Bodies – why we love them, why we loathe them.’
Chief Creative Officer Lucie Cave said: ‘This podcast really showcases Gemma at her best – funny, warm, relatable, welcoming real people into her safe space in a way only she can. I’m beyond thrilled to see a Bauer podcast at Number One spot but its a result of a huge amount of hard work from a bunch of incredibly brilliant people. So big thanks to everyone involved in The Overshare but especially to Matt Foister {producer), Henrietta Harrison (exec), Poppy Davenport (marketing), Cassidy Rebelo (social), Jamie Marrison (video), Ben Watkins (design) and Trevor Jordan (sales).’
