LOS ANGELES, April 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PodcastOne (NASDAQ:PODC), a leading publisher and podcast sales network, announced today the launch of new weekly podcasts from reality star Tom Schwartz, popular YouTuber Toni Bryanne, content creators Becca Bastos and Tucker Reynolds, and the acquisition of Mint Arrow Messages from blogger and content creator Corinne Stokoe. Exclusive to PodcastOne, these podcasts additions bring PodcastOne's network showcount to 203 and grow PodcastOne's reach in key genres of society and culture, comedy and self-help.

"Podcasting is evolving, and YouTube is now the leading platform for podcast consumption and discoverability," said Kit Gray, President and Co-Founder of PodcastOne. "We are embracing this shift by helping our hosts expand beyond audio and launching and acquiring podcasts shows from popular YouTubers, social media influencers and television personalities with engaged fans. In partnering with PodcastOne, we can amplify the voices of these compelling creators, helping them build deeper connections with listeners and advertisers. We are excited to welcome these new shows to our network, each one hosted by dynamic talent offering fresh perspectives in the podcasting space."

Debuting April 22, 2025, with ex-wife and former Vanderpump Rules co-star Katie Maloney as his first guest, Detox Retox with Tom Schwartz is your weekly dose of mindfulness and mischief. One week dive into wellness, self-improvement, and balance — the next, indulge in life's pleasures like great food, travel, and a little chaos. With fun guests and real talk, it's all about finding harmony in the contrast.

The Toni Bryanne TV podcast is where deep dives meet pop culture and think pieces spark conversation. Hosted by Bryanne, this podcast expands on the discussions from her viral YouTube channel, offering insightful commentary on breaking news, celebrity culture, and the narratives shaping the Black community. With a mix of sharp analysis, thought-provoking storytelling, and unfiltered opinions, Toni challenges perspectives and highlights voices that deserve to be heard.

Content Factory hosted by comedians and TikTok influencers, Becca Bastos and Tucker Reynolds is a wildly entertaining podcast that takes you behind the scenes of the least corporate job in America: being a Social Media Influencer. Bastos and Reynolds delve into the chaotic world of content creation with the drama, humor, and tea that can only be spilled in the break room of a really serious office, probably.

Launched in 2019, Mint Arrow Messages is a podcast from blogger and content creator Corrine Stokoe who's best known for her popular fashion and deals blog Mint Arrow. In Mint Arrow Messages Stokoe chats with influencers you know and love about the REAL grit that made them who they are, the hidden stories of struggle, challenge and triumph sharing their stories in hopes to create more awareness, compassion, kindness and understanding in a world that's starving for more goodness.
