Education case study
How a London university turned research into a top-ranked science podcast
The challenge
A university needed to explain complex research to the public while giving prospective students a clearer sense of its science courses.
The approachThe Dagger Listen produced an eight-episode series with academics, thoughtful interviews, and accessible explainers that kept each episode focused.
The resultThe series was featured on BBC Sounds and course enquiries increased by 40%.

Education audio questions
Clear process. Clear files. No guesswork for your learning or communications team.
Can you integrate with our VLE?
Yes. We can prepare labelled, structured audio and supporting materials for common virtual learning environments, LMS workflows, and SCORM-based delivery.
How do you handle academic peer review of content?
Your subject experts approve the facts and final wording. We set review points before recording, then manage editorial changes without losing the natural flow of the spoken piece.
Do you provide student-friendly pricing?
We scope projects around episode length, recording needs, accessibility materials, and series volume. That lets us create a sensible production plan for student-facing work without cutting the essentials.
What about multi-language versions for international students?
We can coordinate voiceover recording and editing for additional languages, with scripts prepared for review before recording begins.
