Las Vegas-based VSiN said Tuesday it brought on a program director who had been leading a national sports talk radio show. In his new position with the sports betting network, Jon Goulet will oversee the expanding slate of sports betting podcasts and continue to build out the network’s broadcast radio footprint.
Goulet previously served as the executive producer of ‘The Herd with Colin Cowherd’ since the show launched on Fox Sports Radio & FS1.
“Jon is one of the most respected names in radio and we’re thrilled to benefit from his industry experience and relationships as we continue to grow our audio capabilities,” VSiN CEO Brian Musburger said in a statement. “Adding Jon will allow us to strengthen our podcast network and both improve and expand our offerings for broadcast radio.”

Goulet joined VSiN this week and reports to COO Bill Adee. He will also work with VSiN’s audio partners, including iHeart, Skyview Networks, and TuneIn, with the goal of bolstering the network’s audio capabilities and distribution footprint.
“Being a part of VSIN is an exciting opportunity,” Goulet said.
Prior to his work on Cowherd’s show, Goulet was an executive producer at 95.7 The Game, and producer of the “Damon Bruce Show” in San Francisco. Goulet started his career in sports broadcasting at ESPN Radio in 2008.
Before working in sports, he worked at WCCC in Hartford, Connecticut. Goulet grew up around the radio business. His father Michael Picozzi has spent nearly 50 years as a host and program director in Hartford and Philadelphia.
VSiN has newsroom studios in the sportsbooks at the South Point and Circa resorts in Las Vegas and satellite studios in several gaming properties across the U.S.
