TuneIn Selling Rachel Maddow Podcast
• TuneIn, Inc., the leading global live audio streaming service, announced it has been selected to exclusively represent sales opportunities in conjunction with Rachel Maddow‘s first original, scripted podcast, Bag Man: A Rachel Maddow Original Podcast, which will be available on Tuesday, October 30.
While details are still unofficially under wraps, the seven-episode arc reportedly deals with the web of corruption that forced the 1973 resignation of Richard Nixon‘s former Vice President, Spiro Agnew. The teaser description, posted on the NBC News website hooked us when it said, “Is it possible for an American Vice President to carry out a criminal enterprise inside the White House and have nobody remember? To have one of the most brazen political bribery scandals in American history play out before the country while nobody’s paying attention? In her first original podcast, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow goes back 45 years to dig into a story that got overshadowed in its day. There’s intrigue. Corruption. Envelopes of cash delivered to the White House. It’s a story that’s not well known, but it probably should be. Especially today.” All righty, then…
“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to partner with MSNBC to exclusively represent the sales rights of Rachel Maddow’s first original podcast, Bag Man,” said Bill Hartman, Vice President and Head of Global Partnerships and Sales at TuneIn. “We have created a variety of partnership opportunities for brands interested in joining this journey through U.S. history and look forward to driving as many listeners — including our own 75 million — to it as possible.”
The Bag Man story will be released on Tuesday, October 30 and is available wherever listeners get their podcasts, including TuneIn. To listen to the entire Bag Man series on TuneIn as it unfolds, visit tunein.com/podcastsweekly, and then on subsequent Tuesdays for new episodes.
