Why Myths & Malice

Advertising That Actually Works

Podcast advertising outperforms nearly every other channel, and host-read ads on trusted shows outperform everything else in podcasting. Here is why brands choose this network.

Host-Read, Not Inserted

Every ad is read by the host your audience already trusts. No generic voice actors, no programmatic insertions. Your brand becomes part of the conversation.

Loyalty That Converts

True crime and history listeners are among the most loyal demographics in podcasting. They subscribe, they binge, and they act on recommendations from hosts they follow.

Premium Demographics

Our network reaches high-value audiences from 25 to 65+. Hometown History alone has 46.4% of its audience aged 60 and over, a demographic that commands top-tier CPMs.

Cross-Network Reach

Bundle across multiple shows to reach different audience segments in a single campaign. True crime fans, history buffs, mystery enthusiasts, all under one roof.

Sponsorship Options

Flexible Formats for Every Goal

From a single mid-roll read to a season-long partnership, we build packages around what you need, not the other way around.

Most Popular

Host-Read Ads

Pre-roll, mid-roll, and post-roll placements read by the show host. Available as 30-second or 60-second reads. Mid-roll delivers the highest engagement.

Premium

Branded Episodes

A full episode built around your brand story, product, or mission. Integrated naturally into the show's editorial calendar so it feels like content, not a commercial.

Add-On

Newsletter Sponsorship

Feature placement in The M&M Dispatch, our weekly newsletter reaching subscribers across all six shows. Includes a dedicated section with your copy and link.

Best Value

Multi-Show Packages

Run your message across two or more shows for broader reach and frequency. Custom bundles with volume pricing, ideal for brand awareness campaigns.
