Next Chapter Podcasts was founded to tell stories.
Stories that not only entertain but also educate, inform and have a positive impact on society.
Our journey began 20 years ago at the dawn of audio content utopia that was XM Satellite Radio.
Shakespearean actor Michael Goodfriend met rock radio deejay and technical producer Jeremiah Tittle working behind the scenes on a weekly talk radio show which lasted almost a decade.Michael's deft wit in satirical writing, chutzpah in talent booking, and clear vision in editorial approach was paired with Jeremiah's consistent dedication to explore all that sound might do to enhance the storytelling endeavor, playing a key role in executing Michael's vision for the producer to be a third voice in a two-person show.Simply put, we were producing podcasts before podcasts were a thing. Michael continued acting on stages around the country including multiple seasons at Oregon Shakespeare Festival and a stint teaching acting at NYU, Jeremiah was helpling ex-professional athletes transition into their second career as radio and TV analysts. Ultimately, they reunited and created a platform to share their unique and diverse perspectives on the landscape of sports and entertainmentwe're not just a podcast agency.
We partner with brands and thought leaders to uncover their unique stories and craft a roadmap to success.

According to an analysis by Edison Research, “Podcasting is ‘back,’ reaching the highest numbers ever, with 90 million listeners each week.” Another study, by iHeart Media, suggests that expansion has chipped away time spent on streaming and social media. And with upward of 3 million podcasts on offer, more people are listening to more content than at any time since the heyday of radio. (Even as much of it is increasingly released in video form, as well.)Hollywood Reporter, August 22nd, 2023
