Lemonada Media is an American podcast network.[1] The company was founded in 2019 by Jessica Cordova Kramer and Stephanie Wittels Wachs.[2][3] In 2019, Lemonada Media debuted their first podcast, Last Day, offering a personal view on the opioid crisis in the U.S. (Kramer and Wachs both had younger brothers who died from an accidental opioid overdose.)[1][2]

As of 2023, Lemonada has launched more than 40 podcasts,[4] including Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, which was named the 2023 Apple Podcast of the Year,[5] and Being Trans/ Being Golden, which pioneered an unscripted format similar to reality TV,[6] and won three Webby Awards in 2023.[7]
