How to Apply:
Submit your EOI detailing your podcast idea, hosts and team (if known),the format, your idea, and your target audience. Highlight how your podcast celebrates diverse voices and will engage listeners. This is a unique opportunity to bring your comedic voice to a global audience while receiving support for both creative and technical aspects of podcast production.
This is your chance to get us excited about your idea. Make sure your concept is not something that is already being made, we’re keen to hear new and innovative ideas. Don’t pitch the idea you think RNZ wants, pitch the idea that you think it needs. It is important to remember this is a comedy podcast - it should be fun and funny! We’d love for your podcast to celebrate Aotearoa’s diverse comedic talent and bring something new to the table.
You will be notified on Wed 11 Dec whether your project has been selected to make a full application.
All EOIs are confidential, and will only be shared with the assessment team at New Zealand Comedy Trust and RNZ.
*Please note that existing podcasts are not eligible for this fund, as the aim is to support the development of new, original podcast content.
