The feed says "en" without a region, so the country is unknown.

Not established
No .uk domain and no region in the feed language. Apple reports the storefront, not the show, so we do not guess.
Reach
70
Percentile among shows you could realistically get on. Not a download count.
Check whether they charge. Some shows sell guest slots rather than booking them, and rates in some fields run to thousands. Nothing in a podcast feed reliably says so, so we do not claim either way. Ask before you write the pitch.
Worth a pitch. This show publishes its own contact, sits outside the national chart, is independently published, and its recent episodes show it books guests.

What the show says about itself

Have We Got Planning News for You is a light-hearted review of the last two weeks developments by seven barristers from across the Planning Bar: Paul Tucker KC, Thea Osmund-Smith, Victoria Hutton, Charles Banner KC, Christopher Young KC, Melissa Murphy KC and John Litton KC. We invite a special guest from the most influential ranks of the Planning World, and we host a special topic every two weeks from Garden Cities to Planning Reform. The views expressed by our guests are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of the panellists.
