Streaming service CuriosityStream has been growing its distribution rapidly and intends to continue doing so with new CEO Clint Stinchcomb at the helm.CuriosityStream is an SVOD serving up nonfiction programming focused on science, history, nature and technology. It was launched in 2015 by Discovery founder John Hendricks. Since that time, the service has been adding new third-party distribution deals at a healthy clip, including a recent deal with YouTube TV.Stinchcomb, who has been CEO for about one month but has been at the company for more than a year, is eager to keep growing CuriosityStream both in the U.S. and internationally.
