The first episode of The Pitch premiered on June 21, 2015, with investor Sheel Mohnot appearing as Muccio's cohost.[8] In September 2016, it was announced that the second season of the podcast would begin airing in 2017 and feature a panel of VC's making investment decisions on the spot.[9] In June 2017, it was announced that The Pitch had joined Gimlet Media.[10] They produced eight seasons of the show with Gimlet from 2017 to 2020.[1]

Then in July 2022, after the sale of Gimlet Media to Spotify,[11] host Josh Muccio purchased The Pitch back from Gimlet for an undisclosed sum.[12] Four months later it was announced that the show had signed a new partnership with Vox Media.[13] The podcast would remain independently owned and produced while Vox would handle sales, marketing and distribution.[5]
