Netflix signs multi-year deal with Ryan Clark’s 'The Pivot' podcast
Netflix has entered into a multi-year partnership with 'The Pivot' podcast, hosted by former NFL players Ryan Clark, Channing Crowder, and Fred Taylor. Starting September 8, video episodes of the show will stream exclusively on Netflix every Tuesday and Friday. The platform will also host the podcast’s existing catalog, while the show continues to be available on YouTube.
As part of the agreement, Netflix has secured first-look rights on new content from Pivot25 Productions, the company co-founded by Clark and Alicia Zubikowski. Pivot25 will also produce exclusive bonus episodes for the streaming service.
The deal follows Clark’s recent departure from ESPN, where he served as an NFL analyst. Clark stated that the move represents a new chapter focused on “passion over platform.” This partnership is part of Netflix’s ongoing expansion into the sports media and video podcasting market.
