Follow on Google News | Jay Walker Inks Multi-Million Dollar Deal To Host Daily Podcast with Echohouse MediaBy: ECHOHOUSE Jay Walker, who is in his early twenties, currently averages over 2.2 million weekly listeners and recently celebrated more than 26 million podcast downloads. His following continues to grow as one of the most talked-about voices in faith, comedy, and cultural commentary. "All Jay needed was the right team and the right push," said Maya D. Foster, CEO of Echohouse Media. "A lot of people refused to work with him because of his past — but not us. He is a changed individual. We're proud to stand beside him." The deal includes a full-time employment agreement, production support, and total creative freedom under Echohouse's publishing model. "People told us Jay was a risk," added Tameka Ellison-Grant, EVP of Brand & Sponsorships. "But what they don't understand is the power of redemption. Jay Walker is worth tens of millions — and somebody finally gave him the platform to prove it." The Jay Walker Show will feature daily commentary, special guest interviews, live audience Q&As, and segments that highlight Jay's journey from controversy to clarity. "I'm not who I used to be," said Walker. "All I've ever wanted was a platform that doesn't just tolerate my voice — but believes in it." The show will broadcast out of Echohouse's Atlanta headquarters with teaser campaigns, digital billboards, and a full-scale media rollout beginning later this month. End
