Britbox announces international expansion. Matt Deegan is joined by media commentator Kate Bulkley to unpack the latest in streamer news, including whether the great disruptor Netflix will survive disruption.

Radiotopia's Julie Shapiro is hired by UK-based audio production company Novel. Podcaster and audio critic Caroline Crampton unpacks what this move signifies for the sector.

Plus, ITV Creative Diversity Partner Sam Tatlow and Channel 4 Inclusion and Diversity Manager Kirsty Walker explain the disability and inclusion passport scheme rolling out across the UK broadcasting industry.

And in the Media Quiz we explore the ambitious deals being struck, from podcasting adaptions to NAPSTER's latest come-back.
