PodcastOne, a leading podcast platform and a subsidiary of LiveOne (NASDAQ: LVO), announced today that it has obtained the exclusive network distribution and advertising sales rights to Some More News and its spinoff podcast Even More News, hosted by Cody Johnston and Katy Stoll.

Hosted and created by writer, comedian, host, and musician Cody Johnston, Some More News, which debuted in 2018, is an always fair, always well-researched, but most importantly, always entertaining take on the topical news of the week. Every Wednesday, Some More News dives into the world’s weekly events with a mix of wit, dread, hope and compassion. As the news cycle never stops spinning, Johnston returns on Fridays full of Even More News, this audio-only podcast also launched in 2018 and is co-hosted by actress and producer Katy Stoll. Stoll balances conversations with her own brand of thoughtful, empathetic analysis which listeners have come to know and love. Together, they present an informative and comedic spin on the frustrations with the week’s buzziest topics. Frequently, Stoll stops in to co-host Some More News and add a fresh perspective.

“With Some More News and Even More News, Cody and Katy host two intelligent, insightful and incredibly funny vodcasts. Their engaged audiences pair well with our existing programming and as we enter into a never-ending cycle of election year news we’re looking forward to Cody’s and Katy’s comedic take on what promises to be an endless flood of attention-grabbing headlines. We couldn’t be more thrilled to work with this team to grow their shows and their advertiser audience,” said Kit Gray, President of PodcastOne.

Some More News and Even More News join a lineup of PodcastOne’s top charting news, comedy and society and culture genre programming including I’ve Had It, Off the Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe, LadyGang and The Jordan Harbinger Show. PodcastOne’s slate of programming can be heard on PodcastOne, Apple, Spotify, Amazon and wherever podcasts are heard.
