Long time no say — but I’m at the Podcast Show today for work. Would be great to share ideas about on-demand audio artwork, analytics/data reporting and new formats for local and regional audiences. #PodShowLDN

Happy 50th birthday today to @BBC_Cumbria (and the former BBC Radios Carlisle, and Furness) - that I grew up listening to, and eventually became part of about 25 years later. And thanks to all the familiar on-air voices over the years who've encouraged me.

Our first ep is up! I spoke to @SofiaBettiza, Kelly Ng, @willyleeadams and Dr Dominic Canova about how heatwaves affect your mental health.

I've been chatting to Zelda fans this week about why the new game's so important to them, and how it's helped them through tough times.

Thanks so much to everyone who shared their experiences with me for this article (my first for the website!)

Here’s the thing though: Iceland were robbed #Eurovision

[Lee Macaulay @lmcly]

In Eurovision, you’re not allowed to vote for yourself. That’s why my douze points goes to Eurovision Uncovered. From now till the contest, it’ll be updated every Friday with new podcasts, interviews and documentaries…

@Matt_Severn @andrewrgrs For now, you’ll get a shorter news summary followed by your local news update and weather – if you’ve signed in with a BBC account

Bittersweet moment presenting the last interactive bulletin on Alexa from our Digital Audio News team.

Here's a picture of me with my number one fave colleague. We'll miss you Alexa! ♥️

[Lee Macaulay @lmcly]

FYI if you ask for BBC News on Alexa smart speakers, it’s going to sound different from today because our interactive news bulletin service has ended.

You’ll still get a shorter news update followed by your local news and weather (if you’re signed in to your BBC account)

Steve Rosenberg’s podcast on how the last 12 months have changed Russia is one of my personal standouts from the catch-up today https://t.co/2eVBHrnZwm

[Lee Macaulay @lmcly]

Today’s BBC News Catch-Up is a really great day to check it out for the first time if you haven’t yet. We’ve got so much in-depth reporting, experiences and unique viewpoints on Russian invasion of Ukraine one year on https://t.co/5Z7l5qJ9zz
