Whitney Cummings Podcast Deal Announcement

Los Angeles, CA – Comedian Whitney Cummings has signed an exclusive distribution and advertising sales agreement with Studio71 for her podcast, “Good for You.” The partnership aims to elevate the podcast’s audience growth and advertising revenue across platforms.

Studio71, known for its leadership in video podcasting, will leverage its resources to enhance the show’s existing strong presence on YouTube, where Cummings has over 6 million subscribers. Each week, Cummings explores topics including culture, motherhood, and the implications of the AI revolution on human experience.

In a statement, Cummings emphasized the importance of authenticity in podcasting. “It seems like everyone has a podcast now, but ironically I think the only way to stay relevant is to not worry about relevance,” she said. “I treat it more like actual TV or writing a stand-up special, digging deep into each topic instead of superficially addressing everything in the zeitgeist.”

Adam Boorstin, Co-CEO of Studio71, praised Cummings’ influence. “Whitney is one of the most influential comedic voices today with a deeply engaged audience. We’re excited to leverage Studio71’s video expertise to bring the show to new fans and grow its advertising partnerships on every platform,” Boorstin stated.

Studio71 hosts over 100 creator-led podcasts and is recognized for its work on popular titles such as Bill Maher’s “Club Random” and “Juicy Scoop.” The deal was negotiated by Jenny Barish, Studio71’s Senior Director of Podcast Relations. Cummings is represented by UTA and Brillstein.
