A new podcast network is launching today with a focus on influencer-hosted shows and sports content that it thinks will have international appeal.

HiStudios, a company spun out of the startup Himalaya, has already inked deals with a variety of creators, including NBA player James Harden and boxer Mike Tyson, setting it up to compete with all the other networks also hunting for new podcast talent.
