0

The Westwood One Podcast Network has added Esports 30 with Kevin Knocke to its offerings — an original podcast covering esports news and in-depth interviews with industry personalities, celebrities, athletes, influencers, and enthusiasts.

Knocke is a gaming industry veteran, professionally involved in esports for nearly a decade as both an executive and personality, first as a commentator for tournaments and later as a popular event host.

Initial episodes of Esports 30 have featured Indiana “Froskurinn” Black, Caleb “WavePunk” Simmons, and Alberto “Crumbz” Rengifo. Other notables are slated to appear in the future, including Dr. Lupo.

“Kevin has a clear vision, deep-rooted experience, and a genuine passion for esports,” said Suzanne Grimes, EVP Marketing, Cumulus Media and President, Westwood One. “He’s a relatable expert offering a unique blend of interviews and honest discourse on what’s happening behind the scenes.”

In addition to breaking down the news and business side of esports, the show will look at cross-industry connections — such as the relationship between gaming and mental health — as well as the crossroads of esports and fashion.

Episodes are a half-hour in duration and drop every Tuesday.
