SaVon’s BIO:
With 2 billion people around the globe tuning into podcasts today, early platform contributors like SaVon Slater had the right idea years ago. As a Long Island University Alum with a Bachelors in Media and Journalism, SaVon sharpened his pen for over three years while writing for Hot 97’s BlameEbro blog and TUC Magazine. He now oversees social media marketing and co-produces the Joe Budden Podcast, a position he garnered as an early devotee to the network. Even with the platform’s ground-breaking rank as Spotify’s #1 streamed podcast, you’d be wrong to assume his mark in multimedia stops there. SaVon is the creator and host of the Need to Know Podcast, an interactive platform that has generated half a million streams across services such as Spotify, Apple, and YouTube. Through his years of experience on-and-off the mic, SaVon has cultivated a dedicated listenership and online presence that propels content to viral lengths time and time again, with endorsements from some of the most prominent figures in media today.
