Libsyn has announced it has entered into an exclusive partnership with Revolutions, the podcast hosted by Mike Duncan, and will also serve as the host for an additional series from the New York Times bestselling author.
The History of Rome has shared nearly 190 episodes on the rise and fall of the Roman Empire and follows closely to one of the books the author has penned on the subject. Meanwhile, his Revolutions podcast just began its 11th season earlier this month, which features insight on the political revolutions through history. That podcast has earned more than 117 million downloads during its history, and is consistently one of the most popular history programs on Apple Podcasts.
“Mike has built one of the most compelling and respected podcasts with ‘Revolutions,’” said Libsyn Senior Director of Publishers & Partnerships Andy Rogers. “At Libsyn, we’re excited to bring brands into the conversation with deeply engaged audiences and the best podcast creators in the business, driving real results. With top-tier creators like Mike Duncan on our team, the opportunities are truly limitless.”
“I’m thrilled to take my relationship with Libsyn to the next level, a true leader in podcasting, to connect with advertisers that resonate with our audience and expand our listener base,” said podcast series host Mike Duncan. “Libsyn’s innovative tools enable us to enhance the ad experience and connect our history-loving audience with brands that share our passion for historical storytelling, making it a win-win for everyone involved.”
The partnership will utilize Libsyn Ads’ host-read and automatic ads offerings, which enables podcast creators to incorporate premium programmatic ads.
