Cathy Newman

Cathy Newman

Author: Gabby Logan April 29, 2026 Duration: 45:22

My guest this week is one of Britain's most respected and fearless journalists.


Cathy Newman spent twenty years at Channel 4 News, interviewed eight Prime Ministers, and broke some of the biggest stories of the last decade — including the investigation that led to the Archbishop of Canterbury resigning for the first time in history. She's just been named Journalist of the Year and Interviewer of the Year, and she's now embarking on an exciting new chapter at Sky News fronting her own show.


But away from the headlines and the political interviews, who is Cathy Newman? What drives her, what has she sacrificed, and what does it feel like to be at this particular midpoint — leaving somewhere you've called home for two decades and stepping into something completely new? This is a really honest and fascinating conversation and I think you're going to enjoy it.

There’s a particular kind of energy that comes with the middle of life-a mix of experience, shifting priorities, and a few unexpected physical and mental curveballs. On The Mid•Point with Gabby Logan, broadcaster Gabby Logan leans into that phase with curiosity and frank humour. Each conversation moves beyond the surface, as Gabby sits down with familiar names to unpack their personal midlife stories, from career pivots and family dynamics to the very real changes in health and fitness. This isn’t just anecdotal; the discussions are thoughtfully informed by specialists, whether that’s a nutritionist reframing diet, a sleep scientist, or a doctor explaining hormonal shifts. The result is a podcast that feels like a series of honest, reassuring chats with friends who aren’t afraid to ask the real questions. Listeners will find a space that normalises the complexities of this life stage, offering both relatable stories and tangible takeaways for navigating one’s own midpoint with more clarity and a lot less shame.
