History
The company was co-founded in 2018 by Malcolm Gladwell and Jacob Weisberg, based on an idea by Weisberg.[1] The two worked together on Gladwell's podcast Revisionist History at Panoply Media and after Panoply exited the medium, the two wanted to do more projects together and started Pushkin.[2]
In 2019, Tim Harford launched his podcast Cautionary Tales on the network.[4][5] That same year, Pushkin began producing audiobooks, beginning with Gladwell's Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know about the People We Don't Know.
Among other books, it published Miracle and Wonder: Conversations with Paul Simon, co-written by Gladwell and based on interviews with the musician Paul Simon.[1]
