Amaze Media Labs also owns several top-rated podcast networks across sports and culinary, including: The Hockey Podcast Network, The Basketball Podcast Network, and Eat, Drink & Dine. Now, with the expanded award-winning production capabilities of Jam Street, the combination will create a content generating juggernaut in the podcast space.

Tuchman, Sklar, and Masters are no strangers to success—literally and figuratively—they hail from having two separate companies listed on the INC. 500 and eventually selling both after proving their value to investors and eventually, their buyers.

The acquisition by Amaze Media Labs, consisting of former CAA, Nielsen, and iHeartRadio executives who understand podcasts are about great storytelling and the data to back it up, of Jam Street Media produces exciting synergies and the possibility to scale exponentially.  Tuchman commented:
