Jacob Goldstein
“Planet Money” co-host Jacob Goldstein is joining Pushkin Industries, a podcasting company, as executive producer.
Goldstein spent more than a decade as co-host of Planet Money, NPR’s business podcast reporting stories that make economic journalism approachable. He’s also the author of the book “Money: The True Story of a Made-Up Thing,” which the New York Times called “a history of currency full of astonishing tales you might tell a friend in the pub.”
Before discovering podcasts, Goldstein worked as a staff writer at the Wall Street Journal, the Miami Herald, and the Bozeman Daily Chronicle.
Goldstein will also be developing his own business show to launch in 2022 and executive producing “Hot Money,” which will be a partnership between Pushkin and the Financial Times.
“I’ve admired so many Pushkin projects over the past few years,” Goldstein said in a statement. “I’m delighted to be joining the ranks of Pushkin hosts and to be part of the amazing production team. I can’t wait to start making shows here.”
