WHO WE ARE
Meet the Blue Wire Team
Blue Wire is built around the simple idea that independent podcasts would be more successful if they worked together. This concept is the foundation of the Blue Wire's network of 260+ shows from 4th & 1 and Funky Friday with Cam Newton, Par 3 Podcast with J.R. Smith & Stephen Malbon, Green Light with Chris Long, and Stay Hot to regional hits such as Bronx Pinstripes, Light Years, Pack-A-Day and many more.
We believe that financial and creative independence are the core metrics of success for our partners. We're here to make sure creators can monetize their content without compromising their voice and passion.
Our Values
We believe that hustle, authenticity, and community are cornerstones of success, and these are the values that connect our employees, network podcasts and listeners.
Community
We believe in building community whether it's between a show and their audience or between our network of podcasters. Our community is inclusive, collaborative and fun.
Authenticity
We believe everyone thrives when we turn up as our authentic selves, feel confident to speak freely and honestly. This is how we communicate with each other and how the shows we work with turn up for their audience.
Hustle
We believe it takes hard work to make incredible things happen. We show up for each other, for our partners and for new opportunities.
