Sort out strange podium (7)
I believe the answer is:
rostrum
'podium' is the definition.
('rostrum' can be a synonym of 'podium')
'sort out strange' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'strange' becomes 'rum' (I've seen this before).
'sort' with letters rearranged gives 'rost'.
'rost'+'rum'='ROSTRUM'
(Other definitions for rostrum that I've seen before include "stage" , "Raised platform" , "Podium" , "beak" , "Platform for public speakers" .)
