Podcasting and radio veteran Steven Cohen joins Crossover Media Group in the newly created post of Vice President of Business Development and Partnerships. He'll be based out of the company's West Coast operations. Most recently, Cohen served for seven years at audio production and ad-sales provider Cadence13, which was recently acquired by Audacy. There he helped build the company's direct-response and other advertising categories.

"Steven is one of the most recognizable faces in podcasting from both the advertising and content sides," said Crossover Media Group Sales managing member Sue Freund. "Given his background in both the audio and the digital podcast space, he brings a wealth of experience to the team which fits ideally with our content lineup. He's relentlessly client-focused and he 'gets' the business of podcast advertising."

Early in his career Cohen worked with such performers as Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash while he served for a decade as a music industry publicist on behalf of producer Rick Rubin and American Recordings, among others. He later launched the first national daily radio show about soccer, initially called "World Soccer Daily" and then "World Football Daily," which aired five days a week on SiriusXM and which was also aired as a podcast. Cohen also served for five years as a co-presenter on "Fox Football Fone-In," on the Fox Soccer Channel.
