PodShow is a company founded by Adam Curry and Ron Bloom. Curry is credited as being one of the fundamental creators of podcasting. PodShow aims to help people to podcast and publish their podcasts, and to help listeners to find podcasts that suit their interests. It also plans to use the marketing potential of podcasts by allowing advertisers to find the podcasts their target audiences will listen and allow those podcasts to put commercials on their podcasts and receive money for it.

In August 2005, PodShow received $8.85 million dollars in Venture Capital from the Sand Hill Road firms Kleiner Perkins, Sequoia Capital, and Sherpalo Ventures. PodShow set up company headquarters in San Francisco, California in a temporary office South of Market Street.

Pod Shows

PodShow maintains a small stable of flagship podcasts, including popular shows such as The Dawn and Drew Show (a spontaenous comedy show) and Accident Hash, a show debuting music from independent artists.

Podcast Directories

PodShow manages indiePodder.org, a podcast directory (formerly iPodder.org) that many Podcast Aggregators use to help people find podcasts and subscribe to them. It also owns Podcast Alley, a centralized directory of podcasts.

Podsafe Music

The Podsafe Music Network is a website run by PodShow which helps podcasters find independently produced music that they can legally play on their podcasts without specific licensing or fees. It also helps artists promote their music through podcasting.

Podcast Hosting

Another arm that PodShow intends to develop is the PodShow Delivery Network, which will provide unlimited free hosting for podcasts. Details are not final yet, but the company's initial plan involves giving podcasters free hosting if they're willing to have advertising inserted before their podcasts. Ad-free hosting for a fee would also be available.
