🔥 Exciting announcement! Today, Platform Media announces their acquisition of a majority stake in The Good, The Bad & The Rugby. https://lnkd.in/dPy9DEd4
It's a hugely exciting day at Platform Media as we announce our acquisition of a majority stake of The Good, The Bad & The Rugby. In many ways, we have been sister businesses and inextricably tied since the very beginning, having produced and commercialised the show from episode one — and sharing offices for as long as we've had one! For over four years, this show has been the single best case study in the market for building and monetising a podcast as not just an audio product, but as a fully fledged and vibrant media brand. But we're only just getting started. I've loved working alongside James Haskell, Mike Tindall and Alex Payne to help build the business to where it is today (alongside Rick Ankers, Simon Clancy, Matthew Sherry, James Peacock, Ollie Wace, Matthew Stanger, Darragh Kelly, Aline Boulan, Ali Griffin, Shira Kilgallon, Craig Swayne and many more at Platform Media) and I couldn't be more excited about its next steps. This is a real illustrative example of where Platform Media is heading with the power of PodX behind it. Huge thanks to Patrick Svensk, Fred Nachemson, Linnea Lebedev Lundvall, Lovisa Ohlson, Jakob Åberg and the rest of the team. Welcome aboard Nic Fletcher, Thomas Edwards, Sam Brett, Catherine Woodward, Jasmine Mitchell, Natalie Goodall, Tommy Hothersall and the rest of the team!
