Podfest joins Adelaide Writers’ Week program in 2025

The 2025 Adelaide Writers’ Week program will include live episode recordings of some of Australia’s most popular podcasts – on topics including relationships, mental health, true crime, literature, humour and politics – as part of a new initiative called Podfest.

Adelaide Writers’ Week Director Louise Adler AM says “Podcasts have quickly found their place alongside the mainstream media as an excellent source of sustenance, in-depth analysis and community, on almost every topic imaginable.”
