Bristol Live's very own podcast is back with the inside track on what has been a very busy week in the newsroom.Two reporters join host Alex Wood on this week’s episode to discuss the viral sensation that is Bradley Stokes - the local league footballer who plays for namesake Bradley Stoke Town FC - and a hard-hitting new BBC documentary about life inside schools in the Bristol area.Reporter Neil Maggs is first up, talking to us about what it’s like to see a story ‘go viral’.Neil is the reporter who first learned of Bradley Stoke Town FC’s namesake player, and the reporter who broke the story via Bristol Live.Within hours of being published, however, the story started to attract national - and even international - media attention, with news websites and papers in France, Italy, India and the US picking up on the story.It even went on to make BBC Sport’s very own ‘gossip’ column - with Bradley Stoke Town FC’s new signing named alongside the latest rumoured moves for stars of the game such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez.And Bradley Stokes, the young man at the centre of the story, has since been interviewed by Greg James on the Radio 1 breakfast show - the most-listened to radio show in the UK.Neil talks us through how he found the story, what it was like seeing it shared around the world and what follow-ups he’s now working on.And then, to complete the line-up on this week’s episode, senior news and education reporter Michael Yong joins Alex in the studio to talk about a brand new documentary on BBC Two, called School.The six-part series was filmed over an entire year at South Gloucestershire academies.Exploring the difficult decisions heads and teachers are making daily on the back of cuts to education funding, the series brings home the harsh realities schools in the Castle School Education Trust (CSET) are facing.Michael, who has written extensively on the issue of school funding cuts, dissects the first two episodes of the series and highlights why more people need to take stock of what is happening - before it is too late.If you have ever wished you could take a look inside your local newsroom and meet the team behind the headlines, Bristol Live have launched the perfect podcast for you.Every Friday, Bristol Live will give you an insight into the things happening in your area and give you exclusive access to the team.To listen to the podcast you can click here or alternatively download from wherever you get your podcasts.
