McElvoy’s arrival comes after a profitable yr for the podcast because it was just lately recognised on the inaugural Political Podcast Awards and credited for its “must-know political insight”.
Coates, who gained Presenter of the Yr on the 2025 Political Podcast Awards, mentioned: “Having Anne on board as my new full-time co-host is hugely exciting.
“Along with her phenomenal multi-decade background in home and worldwide affairs, Anne is greatest at school at dissecting how occasions around the globe are shaping Westminster.
“By combining Politico’s incredible depth and Sky’s ability to cut through the noise, we are well placed to continue providing unrivalled analysis and the latest scoops to our informed Westminster audience.”
McElvoy mentioned: “Sam’s boundless energy, deep cross-party knowledge and a shared delight in informed conversation on the topics and characters shaping politics make even our early morning recordings fun.
He said: “It offers an unparalleled service, giving a group of extremely engaged listeners the total story, first every morning on what’s occurring in politics.”
