In this fireside conversation, long-time friends Graham Norton and Maria McErlane go behind the scenes of their chart-topping podcast ‘Wanging On’, unpacking how years of shared stories, unfiltered honesty and effortless chemistry have translated into one of the most successful podcast launches in recent years.
From what first tempted them into podcasting, to how they’ve built a format that feels intimate, authentic and unmistakably them, Graham and Maria reflect on the power of friendship as creative fuel and why audiences are craving conversations that feel real rather than rehearsed.
The session also explores:
-How Wanging On was shaped both creatively and commercially
-Working with brands in podcasting without compromising authenticity
-Why trust, tone and chemistry matter more than polish
-What podcasting offers talent and brands that traditional media can’t
Along the way, Graham will also “spill the tea” on some of the biggest moments of his recent career. From the meteoric success of his iconic chat show The Graham Norton Show, to building his production company So Television, to even recently making a scene-stealing appearance in Taylor Swift’s latest music video.
