	Description:		We have met our match – in the UK! We are thrilled to announce an exciting new partnership with FoodFM, a food and drink podcast network based in London. While podcasts are available anywhere, listeners tend to gravitate toward what’s familiar in their own culture. That said, we know that everyone shares the language of food. And we are excited to bring more shows to your ears from across the pond. Like us, FoodFM showcases the voices of some of the greatest names in food and drink. Also like us, they aim to introduce their listeners to new ideas in different geographies. Since we are always looking for popular food podcasts, sharing shows just made sense. “The start of a fantastic foodie friendship!” Co-founders of FoodFM Caroline Kenyon and Karen Morris reflect on the new content-sharing agreement. “We are thrilled to establish ties that will allow us all to strengthen and expand.” The launch on June 4 brought four of FoodFM’s flagship shows to Heritage Radio Network: The Drinking Hour with David Kermode, one of the UK’s most popular wine and spirits presenters A Slice of Cheese by beloved food writer Jenny Linford, author of many great books including cookbooks for Kew Gardens Bread & Butter with FoodFM co-founder Caroline Kenyon, a show where she talks to anyone and everyone in her quest to make sense of the world through food From Stephanie to Chefanie in which Stephanie Lake transforms herself from pensions writer at the Times of London to chef at the world-famous cookery school Ballymaloe in Ireland These shows bring a new twist to our extensive library of culinary podcasts. “We could see many synergies between the two organizations,” says HRN Chair of the Board Ronald C. Pruett Jr., “so it seemed a natural step to offer to share suitable content. We are delighted to announce this new venture, a meeting of minds that helps us both succeed in a rapidly growing industry.” In the U.S., we are the largest and oldest producer of food and beverage podcasts. Heritage Radio Network launched in 2009 as a pirate radio station broadcasting from a studio made from two recycled shipping containers at Roberta’s Pizza in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The studio quickly became a nerve center for farmers, chefs, servers, activists, and entrepreneurs working to improve the food system. Today, HRN’s extensive archives are a culinary who’s-who that features storytelling with everyone from star chefs to students to new and under-represented voices. FoodFM, founded in London in 2019, also traces its roots to broadcast radio. The organization tells powerful, personal, political, and uplifting stories from farmers, food producers, campaigners — to chefs, food writers, and anyone and everyone involved in the food chain. It’s no coincidence that this announcement comes just after The Podcast Show in London, one of the world’s greatest gatherings of audio creators in a medium that is set to grow and grow. This new transatlantic partnership reflects this spirit as a step toward a bright future. “At a time of much conflict in the world, food is one of the few things that unifies us all,” say Caroline and Karen, “so it’s great to be connected with our friends at HRN and their audience.” We hope you will check out our shows!
