This year, with the support of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, PRX brought a cohort of 30 public media stations onto PRX’s podcast publishing platform, Dovetail, for no cost, effectively lowering the barrier to entry for stations to pivot to digital audio. Instead of leaving stations to the whims of disparate and expensive commercial platforms, PRX technology seamlessly integrates with the needs unique to these outlets. Participating stations received ongoing learning sessions, consultation on their digital strategies, and tools that transform how they connect with their communities — while bringing on new revenue streams, workflow efficiencies, and station-to-station collaborations. It’s technology built by public media, for public media, helping producers build new audiences and stay sustainable in an increasingly competitive landscape.
2025 at PRX
PRX stands at the nexus of innovation that undergirds the future of the public media system. In a year that has heralded the most dramatic shifts in public media since the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 was signed into law, PRX remains dedicated to building the infrastructure and content portfolio that creators and stations alike need to share meaningful, empathetic, and resilient storytelling. This work to uplift media made in the public interest is only possible because of the support of dedicated listeners, donors, and partners — thank you.
Letter from the CEO
Dear Readers,
PRX has been a driving force of innovation in public media for more than 20 years. We’ve built digital-first audio infrastructure, elevated diverse and essential stories, and provided programming that connects with local audiences nationwide. This year — as we faced the most significant challenge to the U.S. public media system in decades — our work has never felt more urgent or more necessary.
PRX exists to serve both creators and listeners alike to make public media stronger, more inclusive, and more sustainable. As federal funding was revoked and commercial pressures intensified, your support enabled us to move forward rather than retreat. We invested in new shows when others hesitated. We provided free services to under-resourced stations. We brought 30 public media stations onto our Dovetail podcast publishing and monetization platform at no cost. We held firm in our commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility, ensuring that the future of public media remains vibrant, representative, and strong.
PRX is not just weathering this storm — we're charting the course forward. In the coming year, PRX will expand Dovetail even further, unlocking revenue for stations and creators. We're accelerating the transition towards a digital-first infrastructure for a vibrant public media.
We’ll launch and support new shows from diverse creators whose stories reflect today’s audiences, reinforce Radiotopia as a cultural tastemaker that nurtures bold, independent talent, and grow our creative arm PRX Productions into emerging formats like video and live events. And we’ll continue providing direct support and training to rural and small-market stations most at risk of closure — strengthening peer learning networks that connect stations and creators across the country.
This transformation is only possible with visionary partners like you. Your investment in PRX bolsters the infrastructure that safeguards public media's independence, champions producers who strengthen our civic life, and ensures stations remain vital sources of community connection.
As we look ahead, I’m filled with gratitude — for our dedicated staff, for our fearless creators, for our partner stations, and for you. Together, we’re not just protecting the future of public media — we’re reinventing it. Thank you for standing with PRX and for believing in the power of trusted voices to inform, inspire, and connect us all.
Kerri Hoffman
Chief Executive Officer
P.S. Your support matters more than ever. Consider renewing your commitment to public media with a gift today.

The U.S. public media landscape is made up of hundreds of locally owned, nonprofit stations serving their communities. These stations air renowned and fresh programming from distributors, including PRX. They also create and share their work across the system and in the digital audio space. PRX shows up for stations as a critical partner, helping stations thrive in their work while strengthening the entire public media ecosystem.
Empowering Stations for the Digital Future
PRX offers support for our network of close to 900 local stations across the U.S. We distribute a cost-accessible broadcast portfolio of defining shows in public radio like The Moth and Latino USA. As under-resourced stations face headwinds after federal funding cuts, we are providing free access to PRX Remix, a 24/7 stream of high-quality independent stories. PRX also offers personalized services that help stations explore podcasting possibilities, brainstorm solutions to their technology needs, or share their content and find new, unique programming on PRX Networks or the Exchange — public radio's largest distribution marketplace.
To me, it seems like the tone and the tenor with the conversations we have with stations — it seems to be finding new ways to partner with stations and understanding, like, what they're trying to do. And, we have a lot of things we can offer. We can talk about programming, we can talk about helping them get their local content on the Exchange, which they can do for free. If they're trying to make moves in podcasting, we can connect them. We can set up a demo of Dovetail. Or we can just set up just a conversation to learn about their podcasting journey and ask and answer questions they may have about the medium. With a lot of these stations, I'm not always coming at them with programming. Our conversations are multidimensional and it's always about a real, a true partnership.
Ben Cook, Station Services Manager
Working with the team at PRX has been a true highlight for us at WUSF. It's more than just a partnership; it's a genuine collaboration built on a shared vision. From the initial training offered in a Design Thinking workshop to the hands-on help with launching our first video podcast, PRX has consistently shown up as a supportive and forward-thinking partner. They were also there to help us make our Pop-up Podcast Garage a reality, which brought our community together in a new and exciting way. We deeply value this relationship and look forward to what we'll build together next.
Leslie Laney, WUSF Station Manager
PRX on the Airwaves
This Year
99%
of the U.S. could hear PRX broadcast programming, from Barrow, Alaska, to Hilo, Hawai'i. (Plus, listeners across Canada.)
20+
broadcast programs were distributed by PRX, including some of the newest and fastest-growing shows in public radio.
5,300,000
U.S. listeners heard PRX broadcast programming each week — growth that bucks the trend of declining public radio audiences.
Your gift helps PRX support local public radio stations across the country. The elimination of federal funding for public media, including the sunsetting of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, has left many stations — especially rural and small community outlets — on the brink of deep cuts or closure. PRX is committed to helping stations affordably reach audiences asking for news and entertainment that is on-demand, multilingual, and interactive. PRX works with small-town and metropolitan stations alike to navigate the turn to a digital landscape and grow audiences. When stations thrive, communities have access to trusted local journalism and programming. Support the tools and training that keep local public radio stations strong.
Cultivating the Future Sound of Public Radio
PRX brings radio listeners some of the best examples of public media storytelling, from the thoughtful perspectives of The World’s international journalism, to the definitional sound of This American Life — which was celebrated at Tribeca Festival in June for the show's decades of audio excellence. Just this year, investigative reporting from Reveal was a winner of the Healthcare Journalism Awards, DuPont-Columbia Awards, Edward R. Murrow Awards, National Magazine Awards, and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. (PRX has distributed half of the winners of the Pulitzers for audio reporting.) Our roster is beloved and foundational. We are also expanding its sound to meet the future of public radio.
Can we make public media and the public media sensibility a little edgier and a little bit more contemporary and a little bit more in tune with the zeitgeist? And so, what do millennials as a generation want, then? What do Gen Z as a generation want? Not: What do age groups want? What do generations as cultural markers want? The future of public media doesn't have to sound exactly the same. It needs to uphold the same values, but it doesn't have to sound the same.
Stephanie Kuo, Vice President of Content
PRX’s broadcast reach hit a milestone of 5.3 million listeners this year. We curate a broadcast portfolio that is responsive to audience and station needs, including programming that welcomes new generations of listeners. Offerings like KCRW’s The Sam Sanders Show — one of the fastest-growing programs in the PRX portfolio — respond to a desire for content with sensibilities more attuned to the lighter side of life and serve as an antidote to news fatigue without losing public media values.
The headline is: We are starting to define the next generation of audio on public radio. We are shaping the sound and the style and the talent that will become the future pillars of public radio. We have this new crop of talent that we're growing and that has been one of our big achievements this year.
Sean Nesbitt, Senior Director of Industry Partnerships
PRX reaches audiences through impactful storytelling, amplifying the talent creating the audio that grows our worlds of understanding. Listeners hear this in in-depth reporting from our journalism programming, through shows developed in our in-house Productions unit, and in the curation of the Radiotopia collective of audio artists. At the center of this content are creators with the vision to keep independent media relevant and vital.
Radiotopia: Independent Artists in Community
Radiotopia from PRX is a cultural tastemaker, evolving from public radio roots into visionary storytellers representing the best of their genres across history, fiction, society, and culture. This year, Radiotopia launched 18 seasons and specials, including bringing on Hyperfixed from Alex Goldman, Proxy with Yowei Shaw, Never Post, and Selects, an inspired collection of audio gems from throughout the eras. With support from the Mellon Foundation, Ear Hustle built an audio production space for incarcerated individuals in the California Institution for Women. The Memory Palace shared a live performance at the Tribeca Festival. Normal Gossip’s creators passed the reins of the hit show to new host Rachelle Hampton and producer Se’era Spragley Ricks, while Hrishikesh Hirway’s acclaimed Song Exploder extended onto the airwaves with Song Exploder Remix from KALW Public Media in San Francisco. The network’s Radiotopia Presents podcast feed for visionary, emerging producers featured the intergenerational audio drama of queer love, Red for Revolution, and We’re Doing the Wiz, a documentary of identity and reckoning amidst a high school musical production.
Ear Hustle changes the world one story, one episode, one listener, and one podcaster at a time. I've been listening to Ear Hustle since its inception, and it has fundamentally altered — in wonderful ways — the way I'm able to engage with my community. Ear Hustle invites me to see and feel the experience of incarcerated people through eyes that are honest, questioning, and most importantly — and beautifully — human. This is why I support Ear Hustle.
René Vacchio Albee, Ear Hustle supporter
Radiotopia shows are art in audio format. When creators come to Radiotopia, it’s because they have a spark — a passion that has potential to ignite the culture. Radiotopia treats listeners like the smart, intelligent audience they are. As AI-generated slop swarms platforms, the human need to tell stories and build personal connections faces existential threat in a commercial marketplace. Radiotopia is a bulwark for audio artists in an uncertain future.
Creators have the freedom to explore and take risks with the backing of a public media institution that holds space for new sound. There are real business benefits to being in Radiotopia, but it’s also a stance on life — promoting community and collective action to lift each other up.
Radiotopia — we've created a place where independent artists can be independent, but together. And, that by working together, we're building sustainability for this kind of work. It's an example of what we can accomplish when we work together and pool our resources and have each other's back.
Yooree Losordo, Director of Network Operations at Radiotopia from PRX

Mission-Driven Productions
PRX Productions, our in-house unit, develops and produces among the most intrepid programs in the podcasting space. This year, our many projects included American Railroad, hosted by acclaimed artist Rhiannon Giddens highlighting music and voices from the communities that built America’s railway systems, What’s Ray Saying, a show that takes a deeper view of Black life in America through personal stories, and Special Sauce with Ed Levine of Serious Eats with personal conversations about food and life.
Our production unit is still oriented in that way of — there's a reason to know these things. It makes us better people, better citizens, better humans to have this knowledge. I still think that's a thread that runs through the production unit and is why we choose the projects we choose to work on. If we can't find that service element, at least to please ourselves as producers, we don't want to do it.
Jocelyn Gonzales, Executive Producer of PRX Productions
PRX Productions projects are a mix of collaborations with exceptional talent and like-minded organizations. Our recent partners include the National Constitution Center, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Quanta Magazine, the New York Botanical Garden, the Aspen Ideas Festival, the Food & Environment Reporting Network and Smithsonian magazine. While completely diverse in content, each aims to expand listener awareness and understanding of an institution’s focus. What distinguishes PRX in the marketplace is our fundamental identity as an organization that prioritizes quality content in the public interest.

Building Peer Networks
Facilitating the success of creators not only within, but also beyond, our direct portfolio underpins our commitment to media in the public interest. In November, PRX supported a Pop-up Podcast Garage at WUSF in Sarasota, FL, connecting community talent and station representatives to share knowledge and build sustainable relationships. At Podcast Creator Summits hosted by PRX with our partners KUT and KUTX in Austin, TX, and later, WABE in Atlanta, GA, we brought together hundreds of local audio makers to take the pulse of the local creator industry and participate in panels and workshops to take their craft to the next echelon.
I'm Gabe Wardell and I participated in the Podcaster Maker Summit. It was really a terrific opportunity and a terrific event. And the reason something like this is important is because independent makers need opportunities to really hone their skills and learn how to make quality content over time, right? What's happening right now is the barrier to entry for podcasting is super low, but the barrier to quality depends on people learning the processes and learning how to do it right. So I went into this event and I learned so much, and they led me through this amazing process that by the end of it, I had to reevaluate all the ideas I had going in. But now I know that I'm ready to deliver something of high quality that is built to last.
Gabe Wardell, content strategist & Podcast Summit attendee
In past years, the podcasting industry has swung toward blockbuster names, big money, and mass reach. But audiences are increasingly telling creators they need content that feels authentic, personal, and intimate again — and that they will support meaningful work. This is a pendulum swing back toward the values that have always defined the media for which we stand. PRX helps facilitate the success of the creators that are doing this work — without being prescriptive or presumptuous.
The reality is if there were no independent creators or there were no creators, there would be no companies, there would be nothing that companies could do anything with, right? I don't want independent creators to look to companies or PRX, solely as the arbiters of taste and of the rules in the economy. Like, it's just such a wild west ecosystem that, I think that we can certainly be tent poles in the industry, but what I want most is for independent creators to know that other independent creators exist and that their biggest resource isn't that they get to talk to me, it's that they get to talk to each other. I want creators to know that the skills, the success, and the keys to success exist amongst themselves, and that we don't, and we can't be there for them all the time, but that we can certainly launch them in the right directions.
Stephanie Kuo, Vice President of Content
Audio creators and producers are the visionaries behind PRX’s content portfolio. But before digital audio lands in listeners’ ears, it has to navigate a thorny landscape of technology, distribution, data, and revenue. Independent producers and local stations have had to balance a patchwork of often commercial, often expensive tools that don’t center the system’s needs. PRX is changing that.
Technology Created in the Public Interest
This year marked a pivotal moment for PRX’s Dovetail platform, evolving from a tool for close partners into a comprehensive platform capable of serving public media makers nationwide. Dovetail — a digital platform that allows both individual creators and large public radio stations to manage, monetize, and monitor metrics on their podcasts — is becoming the foundational digital audio infrastructure for media in the public interest.
Technology built by PRX is fundamentally different from the products commercial companies offer. Commercial platforms extract maximum revenue for themselves, but our explicit goal is to build sustainability, growth, and genuine support for the creators and stations that depend on us — while ensuring that our listeners are maximally protected with privacy-centric advertising. This means developing networks that serve the system rather than exploit it, and creating opportunities for cross-promotion that helps our entire community thrive.
We, by being a nonprofit, have the ability to say, actually we want to draw a different line based on our values. Our goal is to pass money back to the producers in the system and actually keep as thin kind of budget of things as we can. That is an alignment of interests that because of being a nonprofit in the public media space and our well-declared mission around that, we're all on the same side within public media in a way that no other company that's building a platform for this can say that.
Andrew Kuklewicz, Chief Technology Officer
PRX has delivered billions of downloads to audiences worldwide. Stations depend on PRX because we have built our reputation through consistent service and unwavering principles. In an industry where platforms can disappear overnight or change direction without warning, PRX offers something increasingly rare: stability rooted in mission, not market whims.

Leading with Values
In a year when many organizations retreated from equity work under external pressures, PRX made a different choice. We continue to lean into the values that underscore the best aspirations of public media — to reflect the full American public. PRX is a champion of Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDEA) efforts in public media across the country — supporting a cohort of equity professionals in the industry. With PRX leadership, IDEA practitioners are sharing expertise, resources, and moral support while leveraging their collective knowledge to strengthen equity work nationwide.
I think one of the things I'm super proud of is PRX's posture towards the conversation about DEI. We are still committed to our IDEA pursuits and we want to lean in. Like, we're going to continue to forge on boldly saying that we still believe in inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility very loudly.
Dr. Byron Green, Vice President of IDEA
Beyond the public media system, PRX is supporting institutions resisting misinformation campaigns and efforts to undermine academic integrity. In May, PRX collaborated with Emory University on their inaugural Public Scholarship Academy, and later, with Johns Hopkins University. We developed and facilitated curricula to introduce fellows to the podcast industry and translate academic expertise into podcast settings. PRX has long been a strong advocate of higher learning — our portfolio is home to podcasts that engage the pursuit of knowledge and social impact at the university level and beyond. Helping advance values of truth and diversity within and beyond the system is key to how PRX shows up in partnerships.
Stand with us in defending equity and inclusion in public media. Your donation supports our IDEA initiatives, in-person experiences elevating community voices, and our commitment to doing mission-driven work even when it’s not the most profitable path. In an industry under pressure to abandon its values, your support helps us hold the line. Support public media that works to serve everyone.
Resilience and Innovation in Uncertain Times
This year brought sobering changes in how public media is supported. Loss of funding and directional shifts in the industry are blows to efforts to make content that serves the public interest and the civic health of our communities. This turbulent landscape impacts PRX, but our driving force remains the same. PRX was created two decades ago to pursue strategic innovation by building digital solutions for public media. Our resolve continues to find new paths forward as we face the challenges of the moment.
Every time there's a door closed, I feel PRX is the place that opens another one. And I think that's unique. And I, again, I don't think any other organization is going to take the chances, nor have the credibility in the market, to innovate on the scale that we do. We have to get to a place at some point, where mission-driven work is supported in this country. Otherwise it's going to be a very boring environment, and arts and culture will suffer as a result. We have to be strong and continue to be agile in trying to bring new stuff to the fore and try to be the best partners in doing so.
Jason Saldanha, Chief Operating Officer
Beyond products and programming, PRX operates as the bridge between what public media is today and what it can become. We strive to serve as a dynamic, responsive organization that amplifies voices, strengthens communities, and safeguards the mission of media in the public interest.
Public radio stations consistently come to PRX and say, 'We love you all,' because we are the antithesis to a massive public media machine. We operate at a much higher level than the size of our staff. We are kind and direct, and we are one-on-one with everybody we work with. I think it is what sets us apart.
Stephanie Kuo, Vice President of Content
Awards and Press
“PRX is a public media pioneer that brings meaningful audio journalism and storytelling into the lives of millions. While I always enjoyed a great podcast, until I joined the board, I had no idea of the role PRX played in the podcast space overall. PRX’s technical platform helped spur the marketplace of podcasting today. There would be no shows like Serial, The Moth, Ear Hustle, or 99% Invisible without it.
As we've grown and matured, the marketplace looks to us for leadership: in quality, experimentation, monetization and, perhaps more important than anything, how we treat creators and the creative process.
PRX's goal is not to be the home for everyone, but to be the home for the best and most impactful content. This can't happen unless it's financially viable, something that becomes harder and harder in a world of commercial pressures. Podcasts are playing a critical role in public dialogue; having high-quality content that offers us a window to, and a better understanding of, the history and experience of others is more vital now than ever before.
I truly believe PRX is an indispensable component to public media that actually contributes to public good. You can learn more about PRX and make a donation here.”
