Podcasting and on-demand industry newsletter Podnews has acquired Streamline Publishing’s Podcast Business Journal. Podnews has operated a free daily newsletter covering news, jobs, and events since 2017.
Podcast Business Journal will become a weekly newsletter, containing in-depth interviews with podcast business leaders, and will carry an overview of the week’s podcast business headlines and news. Its first weekly edition under Podnews ownership is this Friday. Readers can subscribe at podcastbusinessjournal.com.
“I’m delighted to welcome Podcast Business Journal into the Podnews family,” said Podnews Editor, James Cridland. “We’re pleased to continue to document the growth of the podcast industry, and maintain Podcast Business Journal’s role of independent coverage for serious podcasters.”
“As Podnews continues to grow, with our series of networking events called Podnews Live, the in-depth weekly podcast Podnews Weekly Review and other plans in the works, we see great benefit in an additional brand to focus on those in business,” Cridland added. The Podnews editorial team will expand in the coming months to support its continuing growth.
Podcast Business Journal was launched by Streamline Publishing Inc in 2018. Gary Krantz, CEO at KMG Capital M&A Advisors (a division of Krantz Media Group) served as the exclusive advisor to Streamline Publishing on the transaction.
