Audacy has announced a strategic partnership with global football stars Tobin Heath and Christen Press and their RE global sports media brand.
The deal is to distribute and manage global ad sales for Heath and Press’ award-winning podcast, The RE–CAP Show.
The RE–CAP Show is a weekly video podcast created by the pair through their values-led media brand RE, offering an honest, unfiltered, and often humorous inside look at global women’s football and wider women’s sports.
Content in the podcast covers raw analysis, tough topics, and never-before-told stories about their lives, careers, and the triumphs and heartbreaks that come with elite competition.
Heath and Press, two-time World Cup winners and Olympians with the US Women’s National Team, have built the show from the ground up as part of their mission to reimagine the world of women’s sports with an inclusive “Gal Culture” approach.
Guests have included Abby Wambach & Glennon Doyle, Alyssa & Gisele Thompson, and Ali Krieger.
Audacy will handle global, multi-channel sales and distribution for The RE–CAP Show, further strengthening its sports content slate and offering brands a values-aligned way to connect with engaged listeners.
“We are thrilled to partner with Audacy to bring The RE–CAP Show to their global platform,” said Heath.
Press added: “We were drawn to Audacy Podcasts’ all-female leadership team and their commitment to expanding women’s sports content. It’s the perfect place to introduce our ‘Gal Culture’ movement to a larger audience.”
Heath continued: “The RE–CAP Show is not just a podcast, it’s an inclusive and joyful fan-fuelled community centred around the unifying power of sport, and it’s a dream to share it with Audacy’s listeners.”
Leah Reis-Dennis, Head of Podcasts at Audacy, said: “Christen Press and Tobin Heath epitomise everything that’s most exciting in contemporary women’s sports, with their elite athleticism, engaging personalities, and drive to reimagine what fandom and sports culture can look like.
“As a longtime fan of the US Women’s National Soccer Team and a more recent fan of The RE–CAP Show, I am delighted to launch this partnership. Both brands and audiences will be excited to get onboard with the movement Press and Heath are leading.”
The RE–CAP Show recently won Best Equality and Social Impact Podcast at the 2024 Sports Podcast Awards and is available on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, the Audacy app, and other podcast platforms, with new episodes released weekly on Thursdays.
