- Connor Tomlinson will host a history‑themed video podcast for indie network PAVE Studios after leaving Netflix’s “Love on the Spectrum” and opting not to return for Season 5.
- PAVE Studios is developing the show under its new Rewind brand, which plans to launch six original video series in 2026 aimed at history‑obsessed audiences.
- Max Cutler, CEO of PAVE Studios, said Tomlinson’s deep knowledge and passion for history make him an ideal partner for the Rewind brand.
- Rewind will also debut “Hidden History” with Dr. Harini Bhat on May 11 and “Government That Doesn’t Suck” with Prof. Greg Jackson and Dr. Lindsey Cormack in July.
- Dr. Harini Bhat will explore unexplained historical events and mysteries in “Hidden History,” drawing on her background as a clinical pharmacist and science‑media host.
- Prof. Greg Jackson will co‑host “Government That Doesn’t Suck,” leveraging his existing “History That Doesn’t Suck” podcast and academic expertise on leadership.
- PAVE Studios operates three in‑house studios in Los Angeles and employs about 70 staff, primarily in production and marketing.
Why it matters: Tomlinson’s move gives him a dedicated platform to reach his 2.8 million followers and transition into acting and content creation, while PAVE Studios leverages his fan base to launch its Rewind brand, aiming to capture history‑enthusiast audiences with high‑production video podcasts.
