Previously, Rosado was executive producer for Us Weekly digital. She also held digital roles with companies including General Motors, adidas and NATO and has worked all over the globe. Impressive fact: Romina speaks five languages. She also loves exploring local restaurants in Los Angeles—except on Sundays. She can’t tell the difference between a linebacker and a cornerback, but she’s obsessed with football—especially Fantasy.

Discovery Channel named Joshua Weinberg vp, Integrated Content Strategy, Innovation and Execution. In this role he’ll partner with ad sales to develop relationships between advertisers and the net’s content and work with production, development, marketing and programming teams to increase sales. He was vp, Communications previously, and before Discovery worked as a senior account exec at the boutique PR firm newsPRos. In high school, Joshua was voted “Most Likely to Become a Game Show Host.” He taught English in Prague at Charles University for a semester in college, he tells us, “which was interesting, since I spoke not a lick of Czech.” He’s also a TV junkie, an obsession that started from an early age. “Anyone remember ABC’s Super Friends and Laugh Olympics?” But that’s not all: “Even with all the manly man content on Discovery, I’m still a sucker for The Sound of Music anytime it airs.”
