FACT OR FICTION

IT’S ALL IN THE ’CAST

Sound of the Overground, a new podcast for ARL colleagues, is now online. The show’s host and internal communications lead George Clarke, helps sort the fact from the fiction

This podcast is designed with frontline colleagues in mind

FACT: We know that not everyone has easy access to emails or internal communications. That’s why this podcast is created specifically for frontline colleagues, bringing updates, stories, and conversations straight to you in an easy-to-access format.

Only people in offices or colleagues with PCs will be able to listen…

FICTION: Sound of the Overground is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms, meaning you can listen anytime, anywhere—whether you’re on the move, at home, or taking a break at work. No PC, username or password required!

Managers will know who has logged on – and who hasn’t…

FICTION: There’s no attendance list! This is about keeping you in the loop, not tracking who’s listening. Tune in whenever it suits you.

There won’t be anything for me – it’ll just be managers discussing business

FICTION: While business matters are included, the podcast will feature frontline colleagues sharing real experiences, industry insights, and even some fun behind-the-scenes stories. You might even hear from people you work with!

Episodes will be short and designed to fit into your day

FACT: We know time is precious, so episodes will be bite-sized and easy to listen to during a break, on a commute, or whenever suits you. No long-winded discussions—just engaging, relevant content.
