What We Do
The extreme velocity of news cycles and 60-second feeds can overpower a good story. Podcasts cut through the noise and let ideas unfold. Think immersive storytelling and longer conversations that fit into everyone’s routines. At Earshot, we give you the team, the studio and the reach to connect with listeners in the languages they speak. We help brands shape narratives, build authority and craft memorable IPs that become assets that keep giving. From the first idea to the final mix, we distill complex subjects into conversations that connect with listeners, whether they are C-suite executives, industry insiders or informed enthusiasts. Earshot also has a wide catalogue of original IPs developed by our in-house storytellers featuring content across Indian languages. While our branded work focuses on how policy and economics intersect with business and industry, our originals explore how these forces shape societies and our lives. Exclusive shows and podcast series like The Bharat Chapters, Raincast, India’s Loneliest Jobs offer a unique window into India and its people. We don’t just document, we interpret a changing Bharat. Our widely distributed, on-the go formats which can be adapted to any platform, meet audiences where they are - on their devices, in their feeds and on their terms.
