School actors in retreat concerning programme maker (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

podcaster

'programme maker' is the definition.
(someone who produces podcasts)

'school actors in retreat concerning' is the wordplay.
'school' becomes 'pod' (I've seen this before).
'actors' becomes 'cast' (I've seen this before).
'in retreat' is a reversal indicator.
'concerning' becomes 're'.
're' reversed gives 'er'.
'pod'+'cast'+'er'='PODCASTER'

I've seen this clue in The Times.
