While some competitors have pared back their podcast plans, VOX MEDIA is expanding with new additions and new seasons of existing shows on the VOX MEDIA PODCAST NETWORK.
New shows coming to the network from VOX sites include RECODE's weekly "PIVOT" with KARA SWISHER and SCOTT GALLOWAY, premiering FRIDAY (9/28) and posting FRIDAYS; EATER's weekly "START TO SALE," hosted by OVENLY's ERIN PATINKIN and COOLHAUS' NATASHA CASE and posting THURSDAYS beginning this week; SB NATION's seven-episode weekly "IT SEEMED SMART," hosted by SPENCER HALL of "EVERY DAY SHOULD BE SATURDAY" fame and posting TUESDAYS starting OCTOBER 23rd; and "FUNCTION WITH ANIL DASH," with a 12-episode opening season starting OCTOBER 22nd. New seasons of VOX's "THE IMPACT," THE VERGE's "WHY'D YOU PUSH THAT BUTTON?," and "THE HISTORY OF FUN" are also coming this FALL; THE VERGE's "THE VERGECAST" and VOX's "THE EZRA KLEIN SHOW" are expanding to twice weekly starting next week, and VOX's "THE WEEDS" is adding special midterm election episodes. Finally, SB NATION has kicked off 32 new football podcasts, one for each NFL team.
“The breadth of our new slate signifies just where the VOX MEDIA PODCAST NETWORK is headed,” said President MARTY MOE. “Never has our podcasting been stronger -- from the talent, to the studio capabilities, to the diversity of programming, not to mention the innovative advertising opportunities. Our audiences have come to respect the authority we have in so many categories, so we’re excited to introduce a whole new lineup of shows that they can tune into for nearly every relevant topic.”
