PodcastOne has acquired the sales and distribution rights to the true crime podcast producer, KSL Podcasts' new podcast "Ransom: Position of Trust," which will debut May 15 wherever podcasts are heard. KSL Podcasts is the producer behind the true crime podcasts "COLD" and "The Letter." Hosted by journalist Art Rascon, the program is the true story of 12-year-old McKay Everett who disappeared from his Texas home in late summer of 1995.

"PodcastOne is thrilled to welcome the KSL Podcasts team behind Ransom. The dedication they've shown in sharing this quintessential example of first-rate investigative storytelling will resonate with audiences and with advertisers. The strength of Ransom furthers our momentum and commitment in developing original IP for television and film production," said PodcastOne President and Co-Founder Kit Gray.

"Ransom is a thought-provoking examination of the automatic trust we sometimes place in those in power," said KSL Podcasts Vice President Sheryl Worsley. "I am incredibly proud of the Ransom team for their in-depth account of what happened to MacKay Everett. Our hope is that this podcast will not only honor MacKay's memory but also bring about positive change."

KSL Podcasts is represented by Paul Anderson of Workhouse Media, who is also an executive producer on the show.
