TORONTO – Corus Entertainment has struck a sales partnership with TPX (The Podcast Exchange) to sell its podcasts in Canada and the U.S.
Corus’ new, growing podcast network features podcast programming from across its 39 radio stations plus a raft of original podcasts like The Ongoing History of New Music with Alan Cross. Corus pledged to roll out a new slate of more original podcasts over the next year.
“Our partnership with TPX is another positive step in our commitment to build Corus into Canada’s source for high-quality, on-demand audio,” said Troy Reeb, Corus’ SVP news, radio and stations operations, in the news release. “Podcasting is an area of rapid growth for both audience and advertisers; this collaboration will allow us to further capitalize on this significant growth.”
TPX will be working directly with Corus’ recently appointed director of podcasting and streaming Chris “Dunner” Duncombe and his team for all North American sales.
