The Project đŸȘŠ

Exactly - and it"s far easier for those sucked in by right wing extremism to shout about such things that haven’t actually changes “going woke” rather than to reflect on their own increasingly less tolerant view of the world.

I think TVHead was joking.

Joking. Trolling. It’s impossible to tell.

A few of us have asked what’s next for Roving Enterprises after it’s time on The Project


At the moment, working for the ARIA and AACTA Awards.

Well, they were already doing that, right?

I knew they were doing the ARIA’s, and have done so for a while now. I wasn’t aware of the AACTA Awards though (i’m not sure though).

I guess their next point of call will be to get something commissioned at the upfronts and I’ve no doubt they’d be keeping what would essentially be a rebranded weekly version of The Project on the table for anyone who will take it.

I’ve no idea what the Aussie podcast market is like but for me that should be an area they look to pivot towards - their expertise, talent and style of programming really lends itself to podcasting IMO and makes business sense to look towards what is still a growing industry as linear TV essentially shrinks.

It does feel weird still that’s they’re no The Project anymore

Before this topic gets closed, I would like to thank The Daily Mail “reporter” who used to regularly check these pages, and make “hard hitting articles”, by quoting us in multiple Project articles. Made a few of us famous :stuck_out_tongue: With the announcement of The Project finishing up, this reporter has been quiet

What a ride it has been this show

Has there been any talk about Seven or Nine buying the show? This show might still work as a 9:30pm/10:30pm, which is what Ten should’ve done years ago.

No. It’s dead, people. Let it go. Networks aren’t investing in 9.30/10.30 anymore, and we are constantly told The Project was not cheap.

Well, well, well, look who is in charge now... It's me! The social media hero (that's what I call myself).

So, one question: what should I do with these accounts? pic.twitter.com/JpjxIrravl

The first reply I saw was:

Keep them active

Not sure if 10 News minus is going to cut it. :rofl:

Would it be a stupid idea to keep the name, social media pages and some of the staff on for essentially a Podcast version of the show?

Think of it as essentially a 30-45 minute daily informative, conversational wrap up and discussion of the headlines (Audio, potentially with a video version for YouTube/Streaming) - Drop it around 5 pm, so listeners can listen to it on the drive home from work or as they do their evening errands, maintain the vibe of the show (with room for funny banter, serious talk and maybe a guest interview or bigger story), with a main host (a Charlie Pickering or a Carrie Bickmore type - serious enough for news, can have more playful banter but keeps the show grounded) joined by rotating bunch of previous regular panellists and new panellists too (2 panelist an episode - one comedian, and a second to add to the convo) any more it probably becomes too many cooks for a podcast).

That way, Roving Enterprise can keep the brand warm in case 10 wants it to return to the Project if 10N+ fails or if another channel considers it (ABC if they want to make a play younger demo in the early evening? (surely would do better than 6 pm Antique Roadshow)), or perhaps have it evolve into something in its own right.

could be worthwhile for them to do something like this

and even moreso if they partner with either LiSTNR or iHeart
