We’ve released two episodes every week for almost 13 years and we don’t plan on stopping any time soon. ACAST won't stand in the way of us doing the show the way we want to do it, the way we like doing it, the way we've always done it. They're excited and focused and I think the partnership will be very productive."

We will be utilizing both their expertise and innovative technologies, such as ACAST+, to ensure our podcast stays ahead of the game.
