Return checkbox value in column

Hi guys,

I want to return a checkbox value in a column layout. I am currently able to return normal fields using the function below:

add_action('manage_posts_custom_column', 'my_show_columns');
function my_show_columns($name) {
	global $post;
	switch ($name) {

		case 'telephone':
			//echo "telephone";
			$telephone_number = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'telephone_number', true);
			echo $telephone_number;
			break;

		case 'email_address':
			$email_address = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'email_address', true);
			echo '<a href="mailto:' . $email_address . '">' . $email_address . '</a>';
			break;		

		case 'featured':
			$featured = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'featured', true);
			echo $featured; // returns nothing
			break;
	}
}

The featured field in this case is a radio button value (Yes/No) taken care of by a custom post type (using the Pods Framework). I wish to return either value that is selected / checked. How will I go about doing that?

Thank you in advance
