Southern Cross Austereo officially launched PodcastOne Australia in September of 2017. The launch event featured a 20 minute walk through with samples of podcasts that are local to Australia. If you don’t happen to live in Australia, you may not have been aware of PodcastOne Australia launching.
It all started in November of 2016, when PodcastOne announced that they had signed a long-term partnership with Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) to launch PodcastOne Australia. SCA will operate PodcastOne Australia as the exclusive partner in Australia and New Zealand with select SCA podcasts made available in the U.S. on the PodcastOne platform.
The joint venture between SCA and PodcastOne represents the first international partnership of this magnitude in the commercial podcast industry with the companies together developing and producing content for both the U.S. and Australia. PodcastOne Australia was in beta that ended at the time of the launch.
