NEW YORK, July 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cumulus Media (NASDAQ: CMLS) welcomes Talk Ville to the Cumulus Podcast Network on July 13, 2022. The podcast series will be hosted by Tom Welling, who starred as Clark Kent/Superman, and Michael Rosenbaum, who played Lex Luthor on the hit television show “Smallville,” about one of America’s favorite superheroes. The podcast series will revisit each episode of the television series show by show, as Welling and Rosenbaum re-watch “Smallville” and share information and anecdotes from behind the scenes.
A new episode of Talk Ville will drop each subsequent Wednesday and be available at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, TuneIn, Pocket Casts, and Google Podcasts, among other platforms. The Cumulus Podcast Network will distribute, market, and monetize Talk Ville.
“I'm glad we're finally able to do this! Looking forward to rewatching the series, sharing stories, and revealing insights from my time on ‘Smallville,’” said Welling.
"’Smallville’ was one of the most successful series on television and it’s the most successful thing I’ve ever been a part of,” added Rosenbaum. “Re-watching these old episodes with Tom is like going back in time… and it’s a happy place."
