Say goodbye to another independent podcast studio as SiriusXM has announced that it has signed a deal with YMH Studios, the podcast network created and owned by married hosts and comedians Tom Segura and Christina P.
The multi-year agreement integrates the YMH Studios staff into its subsidiary Stitcher, the Triton-ranked #1 podcast company, where they will continue to operate Your Mom's House and the rest of the network's slate of acclaimed podcasts.
As part of the new relationship, YMH Studios, SiriusXM, Pandora, and Stitcher plan to work together on the development of additional content accessible across multiple platforms.
Started in 2010 with the original podcast Your Mom's House, YMH studios has since grown to include six other popular spinoff shows, including 2 Bears, 1 Cave featuring Segura with fellow comedian Bert Kreischer, and Dr. Drew After Dark. The wide range of comedy content from the studio bills itself as bringing together "millions of people of all races, religions, numerous genders, varying criminal records and disgusting sexual fetishes" to share a laugh with their motley crew.
Stitcher will distribute all YMH Studios content across all podcast platforms. Listeners can continue to listen and subscribe to YMH Studios podcasts on Stitcher, the SXM App, Pandora, and all major podcast listening platforms. In addition, YMH Studio shows are expected to be available ad-free on Stitcher Premium beginning January 1.
"After over ten fantastic years of building our podcast network, this is the right next step for YMH," said Segura in a press release. "We can't wait to see what the future holds for our team through the support of SiriusXM and Stitcher, and are beaming with pride to see our network and vision continue to grow. Get ready to hear a lot more from the 'Mommies.'"
"Collaborating with YMH Studios is an incredible opportunity for SiriusXM comedy," said Jack Vaughn, Senior Vice President of SiriusXM's comedy programming. "We're excited to bring in and expand the 'Jeans' team, and foster the right environment to help Tom, Christina and the rest of the YMH crew continue to create even more hilarious content."
"Stitcher has been the home of great comedy shows since our earliest days," says Daniel Osit, Chief Operating Officer at Stitcher. "Now as we begin working with Tom, Christina and the entire YMH staff, we solidify our position as leaders in comedy podcasting."
The addition of YMH follows other recent and notable podcasting announcements by SiriusXM and Stitcher, including the acquisition of 99% Invisible, deals with podcast company Audiochuck and global ad sales rights to its top rated Crime Junkie, and new ad sales and content deals with The Last Podcast on the Left. Your Mom's House joins the ranks of other acclaimed comedy powerhouses at Stitcher's Earwolf, the leading comedy podcast network devoted to creating successful shows, such as Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend, How Did This Get Made? and Office Ladies. SiriusXM and
Stitcher are also the home to top comedy podcasts from major talent including Comedy Gold Minds with Kevin Hart, Comedy Bang! Bang! with Scott Aukerman and Storytime with Seth Rogen.
