Its portfolio spans true crime and investigative journalism, entertainment, business, kids and family, comedy, sports, news, and personal growth.

Several of Wondery’s podcasts have been adapted for scripted television or streaming series including Dr Death, The Shrink Next Door, WeCrashed and Joe vs. Carole.

As Wondery’s exclusive sales representative in Australia, LiSTNR will offer advertisers its powerful ‘LiSTNR Voice’ execution – custom creative using trusted, local voices to seamlessly integrate within the intimate podcast user experience.
