History
[edit]
The creation of the network was announced on August 15, 2018,[1] and officially launched on November 28, 2018[2] with five podcasts: My Favorite Murder, Do You Need A Ride?, This Podcast Will Kill You, The Purrrcast, and The Fall Line.
The network signed a two-year deal with Stitcher in 2019, which The Wall Street Journal estimated to be worth $10 million. As part of the deal, Stitcher provided additional funding, advertising, and development tools to the network, and set the plan to create over a dozen more podcasts.[3]
In 2022, Exactly Right Media signed an ad sales and distribution agreement with Amazon and Wondery. Under the agreement, episodes of shows such as My Favorite Murder and This Podcast Will Kill You are available a week early in Amazon Music and Wondery+.[4]
