Aarthi Ramamurthy and Sriram Krishnan, the veteran technologists who first launched their show on Clubhouse in December 2020 only to pivot to a podcast last year, are on the move once again. The Aarthi and Sriram Show has joined iHeartPodcasts. The tech power couple’s weekly show features what they say are “optimistic conversations” with the influential people building and creating new products and technologies.
"Our show is all about optimism and telling the stories of unique individuals who have reached the top of their fields after starting on the outside," said Ramamurthy and Krishnan in a joint statement. “We are grateful to our community for supporting us and helping us grow. We are excited to partner with iHeartPodcasts in this next chapter and collaborate on exciting content for our audience,” they said.
The Aarthi and Sriram Show has built a loyal following since its launch on Clubhouse nearly three years ago. The show has amassed millions of downloads and views across YouTube and social media since launch – reaching a global audience spanning the United States, India, United Kingdom and the Middle East. It has also attracted some big names as guests, including Elon Musk, Virgil Abloh, Indra Nooyi, A. R. Rahman, Rob McElhenney and Diane Von Furstenberg.
“Aarthi and Sriram have created an impressive show featuring insightful conversations with top minds across industries,” said Will Pearson, President of iHeartPodcasts. “These two have also built a highly engaged community, and we are thrilled to welcome ‘The Aarthi and Sriram Show’ to iHeartPodcasts -- and help the show to reach an even wider audience.”
The move to iHeart for The Aarthi and Sriram Show starts this weekend, with the podcast releasing new episodes each Saturday.
Ramamurthy and Krishnan grew up in India where they met as teenagers and went on to have leadership roles in the heart of Silicon Valley running organizations at Meta, Twitter, and Microsoft. Krishnan is currently an investor at a leading venture capital firm and Ramamurthy is Chief Product Officer at the commerce company CommerceHub.
