The former executives of Pineapple Street Studios have started a new venture in the podcast world by establishing their own studio. This new studio has begun developing projects with well-known names like Dan Taberski, Amy Poehler, and Patrick Radden Keefe. Pineapple Street Studios was a podcast production company recognized for its successful narrative series such as Wind of Change, Missing Richard Simmons, and The Clearing.

The studio closed after the company's owner, Audacy, filed for bankruptcy a year ago. This closure marked a significant loss in the podcast industry. However, the former executives' new initiative has the potential to deliver innovative projects and content in the podcast realm. This new studio aims to provide quality content to listeners by leveraging their past experiences and connections.

The founders of the new studio aim to contribute to the resurgence of interest in podcast storytelling. In particular, Dan Taberski's projects will focus on topics that capture listeners' attention and spark interest. Collaborating with names like Amy Poehler and Patrick Radden Keefe seems poised to enhance the studio's creative potential and intensify competition in the industry.
