Disney+ And Hulu To Stream Pave Studios True-Crime Podcasts ‘Clues’ And ‘Mother Knows Murder’
Disney+ and Hulu will stream two true-crime video podcasts from Pave Studios, giving the shows an exclusive day-ahead window before episodes appear on other podcast platforms. The deal marks the first time a major streaming service has picked up titles from Pave’s Crime House label, as platforms look to podcasts to increase viewing and engagement.
Clues, hosted by Kaelyn Moore, premieres next Tuesday and recently won a Webby. Mother Knows Murder, hosted by actor Niecy Nash and her daughter Dia Nash, debuts on 9 November; the pair discuss real cases while reclining in bed. Pave was founded by Max Cutler, previously the founder of Parcast, which Spotify acquired.
