Podcasting & Creative Storytelling with Olivia Graham

Hosted by Liverpool-based creative Olivia Graham, this workshop focuses on storytelling through podcasts. The award-winning podcast producer and editor (working with BBC Sounds and Polyester) will start by discussing her career and experience before helping us understand the content side of the podcasting process, all the way from concept to marketing.
Olivia Graham is a creative storyteller with a background in podcast production and editing. She has experience working with film, visual art, creative writing and exhibitions, and her practice centres around telling stories; mostly for people and voices not included in mainstream media.
Olivia hosted, co-wrote and produced The Missing Madonna - a nine part BBC podcast series that reveals the twisting tale behind the return of a stolen masterpiece. Its a story about the Scottish establishment, high-stakes art theft and some (sound) lads from Liverpool. After huge success on BBC Sounds (over 2 million downloads) it was picked up and aired on Radio 4 in August 2024.
For several years Olivia has worked for the feminist pop culture zine Polyester (London) as a podcast producer and editor, and the series has grown to over 70,000 monthly listeners. She has worked as a creative on films showcasing feminism in England, has co-curated a photography exhibition platforming the LGBTQIA community in Ukraine, and for the past 12 months, has done projects with Liverpool Football Club platforming and campaigning for inclusion of queer football fans.
This event takes place in The Lab in Studio/Lab on the Third Floor of FACT.
