When you head to Spotify to stream your favorite podcast, sometimes you’re looking for an active listening experience—one with the option to more deeply engage with the content you’re listening to.” says Spotify. “That’s why we’ve created features like Polls and Q&A for a chance to interact with creators. It’s also why we’ve incorporated video podcasts alongside our audio offering so fans can get to know their favorite podcast hosts even better, and creators can connect with their audiences in a much deeper way.” Spotify added further.

When the audio streaming media platform first began rolling out video podcasts. It tested the format with a variety of Spotify Originals. Since then Spotify has found out that all their users want the option to easily switch between audio only and video depending on where they are, what they’re doing, and what they’re enjoying. Hence it is beginning a major expansion of its video podcast catalog by putting it in the hands of creators.

Some of these include Philip DeFranco, The GaryVee Audio Experience, Jasmine Chiswell, The WAN Show, Juicy Scoop with Heather McDonald, Mark Manson, Tap In w/ Harry Jowsey, and many more to come. These shows join Spotify Originals and Exclusives including The Ringer’s Higher Learning with Van Lathan and Rachel Lindsay and The Joe Rogan Experience.
