Dave Chappelle's Pilot Boy Productions has invested in Luminary, a podcasting platform, during a period of transition when the CEO position has passed from Simon Sutton to Rishi Malhotra. As part of the investment deal, a member of Pilot Boy Productions will now sit on Luminary's board. The podcasting platform was previously connected to Chappelle due to Luminary being where the comedian's podcast "The Midnight Miracle" was hosted.

Chappelle remarked, "I chose Luminary because they value artists and share my vision for re-imagining audio content. 'The Midnight Miracle' and our unique format is changing the podcast experience."

Sutton, the previous CEO, was notable for a former president of HBO, while Malhotra was most recently the co-founder and CEO of JioSaavn, an Indian music streaming service. He also worked as VP of multiplatform marketing at HBO.

In a statement, Malhotra said, "We are going beyond subscriptions to deliver products that connect fans more uniquely to creators. I'm honored to work with the exceptional team and talent partners at the company. We are at a crossroads of shaping new media that entertains, educates, and elevates us." We're interested in seeing what new audio content this stronger partnership will bring.
