eMedia's South African TV news channel eNCA (DStv 403) is adding podcasts from Dan Corder and Randall Abrahams to its website as first-run original content from 1 July.
Dan Corder, currently the host of the weekly The Dan Corder Show on eNCA is adding The Corder Report as a podcast that will release original episodes from Tuesdays to Fridays at 16:00 from 1 July.
"The Corder Report brings Dan Corder's trademark sharp analysis, unmistakable humour and compelling storytelling into a powerful new visual format," says eNCA.
According to eNCA The Corder Report will feature "Hundreds of 'recorders' contributing voice notes and messages through the show's active WhatsApp line, which Dan features into each episode, turning news from a one-way broadcast into a nationwide conversation".
Dan Corder says, "This partnership with eNCA helps us spread the stories that matter to more South Africans. The idea has always been to make the news feel like a watch party, where we laugh, argue, think and connect with the world around us."
eNCA is also adding Both Sides as "a provocative new podcast" with the former Idols presenter and Primedia CEO Randall Abrahams on Sundays at 12:00.
According to eNCA, Both Sides "creates a space where thoughtful dialogue meets unfiltered perspective" and will "bring together an unexpected mix of guests – from political heavyweights and cultural game-changers to entertainment icons and voices you didn’t know you needed to hear".
"There’s no script, no predictable angles – just conversations that reveal the complexity behind every headline.
Randall Abrahams says, "Both Sides is a space for layered conversations. The kind that ask bold questions and reveal what people don’t usually say out loud."
