Seasoned podcast executive N’Jeri Eaton announces the creation and launch of Type C Studios, where she will serve as CEO. The new company’s mission states: “Dedicated to culturally resonant, premium video and audio podcasts across platforms.” It is founded by three women of color who came together after being laid off in an environment Eaton describes as “a nationwide pushback on DEI efforts, continued media consolidation, and the looming disruption of AI.” The new effort promises to operate “at the intersection of creativity, technology, purpose, and intelligence.” Eaton’s partners are Tonja Thigpen (COO), who built out video publishing at Wondery, and Anhelo Reyes (Chief Brand & Audience Officer) who held roles at Wondery, Paramount Network, and Nickelodeon. Addition: N’Jeri Eaton is featured on Podcast Perspectives, the interview show produced by The Podglomerate, HERE.
