Radiotopia is a podcast network founded by 99% Invisible host Roman Mars and run by the Public Radio Exchange. The network is organized as a collective of some two dozen shows whose producers have complete artistic control over their work. Since its launch, podcasts in the network have been downloaded over 19 million times per month.[1]

History

[edit]

Radiotopia, founded by Roman Mars,[2] was launched in February 2014 with an initial group of seven shows: Jonathan Mitchell's The Truth, Lea Thau's Strangers, Benjamin Walker's Theory of Everything, Nick van der Kolk's Love and Radio, the Kitchen Sisters' Fugitive Waves (later renamed The Kitchen Sisters Present), Radio Diaries and Roman Mars' own flagship show 99% Invisible.[3] The makers of these shows had decided to band together as independent producers who didn't have the support of traditional radio broadcasting, targeting instead a growing audience of podcast listeners.[4]

The podcast network was initially supported by a US$200,000 injection from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The network is run by the Public Radio Exchange (PRX) who described it as "somewhat like an independent record label".[5] In October 2014 a Kickstarter campaign was started to support the growth of the network,[6] raising over US$600,000 and making it the most-funded radio or podcast project on the site.[7] This money allowed the expansion of the network, as well as the addition of four new shows.[8] In May 2015, the network received a further US$1 million from the Knight Foundation to fund more shows on the network. In September of that year, Julie Shapiro was hired as Radiotopia's executive producer.[9][8]

Around the time of Radiotopia's launch, the network's podcasts received around 900,000 downloads per month. This figure increased to 7.5 million by May 2015, 8.5 million in September 2015,[8][9] 13 million as of June 2016,[10] and more than 19 million times by the end of 2019.[11] Within its first year, Radiotopia grew from seven to eleven shows, adding The Heart (formerly Audio Smut), Phoebe Judge's Criminal podcast, Helen Zaltzman's The Allusionist, and The Mortified Podcast based on the popular international stage show and documentary series.[12] Within the company's second year, Radiotopia adopted Hrishikesh Hirway's Song Exploder and Nate DeMeo's The Memory Palace from the Maximum Fun network, as well as Megan Tan's show Millennial and has continued to add new shows to its roster ever since.[13]
