Those podcasts are Happy Face, Ridiculous History, The Herd with Colin Cowherd, How to Money, The Daily Zeitgest, Whine Down with Jenna Kramer, Unobscured, The End of the World with Josh Clark, iHeartRadio Presents: Inside The Studio, and the upcoming Ron Burgundy Podcast.
“Podcasting has emerged as our newest and fastest-growing audio platform, with incredible audience engagement,” said Conal Byrne, President of the iHeartPodcast Network. “2019 is going to be a huge year for us, rolling out dozens of new shows, and after much examination we are delighted to have selected Megaphone as our key enterprise and infrastructure partner for a slate of our biggest hits as we continue our extraordinary podcast growth.”
“iHeartMedia is transforming the podcast industry with its innovative and enlightening content,” said Brendan Monaghan, CEO of Panoply Media. “We’re incredibly proud to be working with the leading audio company in America, and we’re committed to continuously improving our technology to support their podcast business.”
iHeartMedia’s move to Megaphone follows its acquisition of Stuff Media, LLC, which includes the hugely successful HowStuffWorks podcast network. HowStuffWorks announced earlier this year that its entire slate of shows would be hosted on Megaphone.
