Mark Hunter (podcaster)

Mark Hunter is a Scottish-based podcaster. He started the tartanpodcast in March 2005 quickly following it with the Sleepy Sunday Show and The Spotlight Show. The tartanpodcast was the first music-based podcast from Scotland.

The summer of 2006 saw him start The Mellow Monday Show for The Podcast Network.

Production of the tartanpodcast, a showcase music podcast for Scottish indie bands, ended in June 2007 after 110 episodes. Following a one-off episode in October, the tartanpodcast returned as a regular show in February 2008.

Mark tried to keep a down to earth production standard for the tartanpodcast, referring to himself as 'just a guy', living and working in Glasgow, Scotland[1].

An article on the BBC Technology site from June 5th 2005[2] raised the profile of the tartanpodcast. Several podcasters have since attributed their decision[3] to start their own podcast to reading this article.

Mark was approached late in December 2007 and asked to become managing director[4] of new media production company Podcastmatters Ltd [5], where he currently works.
