\n\tEXCLUSIVE: Marina Hyde<\/a>, whose sharp and incisive columns have called out many public figures in British and U.S. society, is going solo \u2013 and it looks like she\u2019ll be Always On.<\/p>\n

\n\tWe can reveal the broadcaster, podcaster and writer, who contributed to HBO series The Franchise, is teaming up with Gary Lineker\u2019s Goalhanger<\/a> to launch Always On With Marina Hyde<\/a>. This comes after she last month announced her exit from The Guardian<\/a> newspaper after 26 years.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe brand is designed to bring her writing together with formats on YouTube and social media, and is being framed as \u201ca window into the stories that Marina finds interesting \u2013 the details, performances and absurdities that catch her attention, and the connections only she can make.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tExpect interviews and collabs with influential British voices across a multitude of formats. On day one, Hyde will provide a regular written column, a YouTube show and original social content, and in \u201cover time,\u201d will push into \u201cfurther audio, video and digital formats.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHyde is no stranger to her new home at Goalhanger, which produces her popular entertainment podcast, The Rest is Entertainment. She co-hosts the entertainment industry digest with Richard Osman. Hyde is expected provide more detail on the venture in the latest episode of the show.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis is going to be so much fun,\u201d said Hyde. \u201cI\u2019m hugely excited to be launching Always On in partnership with the brilliant team at Goalhanger, and to be able to respond to the news batsignal in whatever format feels right \u2013 written\/video\/podcast\/social\/costumed vigilantism. I\u2019m also thrilled we\u2019ve named it in tribute to the nervous breakdown it\u2019s going to give me. Thanks guys \u2013 means a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFor Goalhanger, Always On is the first launch from its Goalhanger X initiative, which aims on building creator-led media ventures. Hyde becomes the latest figure from British journalism branching out on their own, with The Traitors contestant and broadcaster Amol Rajan recently exiting the BBC to launch his own operation and the likes of former BBC staples Emily Maitlis and Jon Sopel now well established with the Global-produced podcast The News Agents.<\/p>\n

\n\tJack Davenport, co-founder at Goalhanger, said of Always On: \u201cWe love Marina. At Goalhanger, our shows span sport, politics, history and entertainment, but the truth is Marina could host them all. There\u2019s no one else who can bring together so many different strands and make sense of the world quite like she can.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cPartnering with her to launch Always On is the start of something really exciting for us as a business. Goalhanger X is built around unique personalities: people with a distinctive voice, an incredibly loyal audience and the ability to create far beyond any single format.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDavenport said Always On would give Hyde Marina \u201cthe freedom to build a world around everything she finds interesting, funny or important, and to connect directly with audiences through writing, video, social, podcasts and whatever comes next.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tGoalhanger\u2019s role would be providing the \u201ccreative, audience and commercial infrastructure around that vision so it can grow, while keeping Marina firmly at the centre.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: Marina Hyde, whose sharp and incisive columns have called out many public figures in British and U.S.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":800124,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[263063,6491,35553,96,263064,175048,52293,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-800123","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-always-on-with-marina-hyde","tag-celebrities","tag-creator-economy","tag-entertainment","tag-goalhanger","tag-marina-hyde","tag-the-guardian","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800123","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=800123"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800123\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/800124"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=800123"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=800123"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=800123"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
