Staudt: Master Of His Domain
Staudt joined iHeartMedia in April 2017 as Digital Program Director of the company’s San Francisco cluster, where he developed the first local branded podcast strategy and launched more than 30 original locally focused podcasts. He was upped to VP of Podcast Programming at iHeartRadio in June 2018.
In closing, Staudt said, “I have LOVED my time at iHeart and getting to be radio’s first VP of Podcast Programming was the culmination of 29 years of work in radio, 8 years in higher education, and 12 years in podcasting. In the time I have spent with iHeart I have been able to help launch hundreds of podcasts and create podcast networks in every major market in the United States. The talent at iHeart is the best and it’s been my pleasure to work with them and help them move forward into the world of podcasting. This is not goodbye at all, and I am sure I will be working with iHeart for years to come and I will continue to host Access Podcast for IHR.” Going forward, Staudt can be contacted at matty@jamstreetmedia.com.
