Sybil Wilkes’ Has a New Podcast, “What Else You Need to Know”


YoSy Media Teams with Crossover Media Group to Launch Sybil Wilkes’ New Podcast, 

“What Else You Need to Know”

 


 

YoSy Media and Crossover Media Group have struck a deal on “What Else You Need to Know,” a weekly podcast hosted by broadcast media veteran and YoSy co-founder Sybil Wilkes. “What Else You Need to Know” thoughtfully examines social and personal dynamics from a perspective of Black well-being, and is a companion broadcast to Wilkes’ “What You Need to Know” newsletter, Facebook Live and YouTube live streams.

 

Airing now on Spotify, Roku, Apple Podcasts, and more, “What Else You Need to Know” draws on the deep history of YoSy’s co-founders, Yolanda Starks-White, former BET Director of Talent and long-time Tom Joyner Executive Producer, and nationally syndicated media personality Wilkes, known as “The Voice of Reason” on the iconic “Tom Joyner Morning Show.” Wilkes grounded deliberation of serious issues and humorous treatment of life’s folly is a refreshing alternative for those seeking news and information that impacts their lives.

 

“We are thrilled to partner with Crossover Media Group and take advantage of the same cross-platform expertise used by some of the largest media companies in North America,” Wilkes said. “This partnership provides the type of practical support that will allow us to focus on creating content and collaborations that will continue to super-serve the Black community.”

 

YoSy Media is dedicated to identifying and supporting activities, organizations, and efforts that contribute to Black physical, financial, educational, political, and social well-being and empowerment. The relationship with Crossover Media Group supports YoSy’s ongoing commitment to transform commentary into action, including recent collaborations to mobilize support for Black women’s access to health care and creating a professional media path for Black students.

 

“This collaboration allows Crossover Media Group to tap into one of the most respected and rapidly growing Black media brands in the country, while YoSy’s rapidly expanding news and information franchise will reap the rewards of CMG’s adaptive, data-driven, cross-platform audience engagement, and sales expertise,” said CMG’s Managing Partner Ron Hartenbaum.
