Look, most media companies will tell you they're "a powerhouse." We actually are one.

The Kim Komando Show reaches millions of people every week across 500+ radio stations, SiriusXM, popular newsletters like The Current, a growing YouTube channel, and a podcast network that keeps expanding. Our audience? Everyday Americans who want to live smarter and safer in a world that changes faster every day. We give them exactly that.

MUST LIVE IN PHOENIX/SURROUNDING AREA!

Now we're looking for an Executive Producer who can help keep that engine running.

What You'll Actually Do

This isn't a "manage the calendar and nod in meetings" job. You're steering editorial. You're making calls. You're the reason the show sounds sharp every single week.

Here's what that looks like day to day:

• Develop show topics and story ideas that connect tech to what people actually care about: their money, their safety, their family, their time
• Oversee scripts for broadcast and podcast production from first draft to final cut
• Write Daily Listener Hacks (DLHs), segment teases, and show notes people actually want to read
• Manage and support producers so everything runs on time and on point
• Review callers and place them in the right segments for maximum impact
• Book and prep guests who have something real to say (not just a PR pitch)
• Conduct outreach via email, phone, and social media to land the right voices
• Write podcast titles and descriptions that actually get clicks
• Update show notes and content on
• Collaborate with the video team on social clips that stop the scroll

What You Bring to the Table

• Real experience in radio, podcast, TV or digital media production
• Strong editorial instincts. You know a good story when you see one.
• Organization skills sharp enough to juggle multiple deadlines without breaking a sweat
• Experience booking and prepping interview guests (and handling the ones who cancel 20 minutes before air)
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment where things change quickly and that's just Tuesday

Why This Job Is Different

You won't be producing content that disappears into the void. Your work reaches millions of real people every single week. People who take action because of what they heard on the show. That's not nothing. That's everything.

You'll wear multiple hats, pitch ideas that actually get made, and work alongside a team that genuinely loves what they do. No corporate bloat. No investor nonsense. Just a passionate crew building something that matters.

If you're organized, creative, and ready to help shape how America understands technology, we want to hear from you.

We'd say this job will keep you on your toes. But really, you'll be so busy producing great content, you won't have time to sit down anyway.

Come for the career. Stay for the dad jokes.

We take great pride in our diverse and talented workforce. We recognize our continued success depends largely on the collective strengths of our employees. Developing the right mix of skills, ideas and individuals requires an unwavering commitment to Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action. Accordingly, we recruit, hire, train and promote persons in all job titles and ensure all other personnel actions are administered without regard to an employee’s race, color, religion, national origin, gender, age, sexual orientation, citizenship, veteran status or disability.
