Beehiiv hired Ainsley Rossitto as Head of Podcasts in May 2026. Rossitto previously served as VP of Digital Strategy and Operations for Podcasts at Paramount and held roles at NPR. The move follows Beehiiv's April 2026 launch of native podcast hosting included on every plan with distribution to major platforms and no download-based pricing. Beehiiv added $4.5 million ARR in Q1 2026, sent more than 10 billion emails, and surpassed 50,000 active users. Tyler Denk said the company is on the ground floor for capturing opportunities for podcasters.
