The daily news podcast company announced the new money will support Ride Home Media’s plans to launch a variety of daily news podcasts for listening during the evening commute.
The $1 million in seed funding comes from Tiny Capital.
Ride Home also announced the launch of its third daily news podcast, the Celeb News Ride Home.
The company currently publishes three podcasts: the Techmeme Ride Home, Silicon Valley’s daily tech news podcast of record; the Election Ride Home, reporting every day on developments in the 2020 U.S. elections; and, launching today, the Celeb News Ride Home, a daily briefing from the world of celebrities and influencers. Additional podcasts will launch in the coming months.
Brian McCullough, co-founder and CEO at Ride Home Media, said: “We believe that we can create a whole slate of compelling here’s-what-you-missed daily podcasts in any vertical you can imagine. We’re excited to use this round to expand into dozens of topics. All interested creative folks: get in touch! We want to do a Ride Home for almost anything.”
