At Studio71, I developed and oversaw new show launches from ideation and concept through episode outlines to production. For each new show launch, I provided creative feedback on designs, stylized copy, and curated digital promotional assets for marketing campaigns across multiple channels to ensure the success of new podcasts.
You have now entered The Quizard’s Pit… a weekly trivia tumble into the weirdest corners of the known world! Join intrepid pals Shane Madej and Matt Real, plus the occasional brave guest, as they dive headfirst into a fact-finding tête-à-tête fueled by curiosity, questionable confidence, and a deep love of learning strange little things. Each episode, they are assigned a universal topic like cats, bicycles, or Denver, then each brings three of the most surprising and downright staggering facts they can dig up. The result is a delightfully chaotic informational mosaic that proves it is nice to know a lot about a little, but sometimes all you can hope for is knowing a little about a lot. So, kick back, clear your mind, and prepare to uncover the secrets of the known world. Welcome to The Quizard’s Pit.
Funny You Ask is a weekly comedy-trivia show hosted by Ike Barinholtz, who gathers his funniest friends to question their most random, odd, and “wait… why do you know that?” obsessions with the world. Soup? Sure, why not. The Mets? Duh. Roman Empire? You got it, Caesar. It’s part conversation, part pop quiz, and full of knowledge you didn’t know you needed—until now. The score doesn’t matter, the laughs are endless, and learning something has never been this fun. Turns out facts are… kinda awesome.
Every other week, tune in as host Amanda Montell, author of the New York Times bestselling book The Age of Magical Overthinking and host of the Sounds Like A Cult podcast, interviews a brilliant expert guest about a buzzy, confounding, anxiety-provoking topic.

Complete with heart-on-their-sleeve personal stories, thought-provoking conversations, and actionable takeaways for how chronically online listeners can get out of their own heads, this podcast is here to make some sense of the senseless. To help quiet the cacophony in our brains for a while. Or even hear a melody in it.
