As video podcasts continue to grow in popularity, our partnership with Spotify allows us to bring full video versions of these top shows to both Netflix and Spotify audiences. From pop culture and lifestyle to true crime and sports, this curated selection of video podcasts adds fresh voices and new perspectives to Netflix, making our entertainment lineup more exciting than ever.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>What began as an audio-only medium has now become a multi-format landscape. Video podcasts are rising in popularity, with Spotify reporting over <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/video-podcasts-boom-on-spotify-250000-and-growing\/\">250,000 video podcasts<\/a> on its platform and growing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spotify is helping creators reach new audiences in innovative ways. Roman Wasenm\u00fcller, Spotify VP and Head of Podcasts, explained, \u201cThis partnership marks a new chapter for podcasting. Together with Netflix, we\u2019re expanding discovery, helping creators reach new audiences, and giving fans around the world the chance to experience the stories they love and uncover favourites they never expected. This offers more choice to creators and unlocks a completely new distribution opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalmusicnews.com\/2025\/10\/14\/netflix-and-spotify-team-up-for-video-podcast-partnership\/\">Digital Music News<\/a>, YouTube continues to dominate the video podcast space, with 72% of listeners surveyed saying they prefer shows with video.

With this collaboration, video podcasts are set to become more accessible, more engaging, and more connected, offering fans fresh ways to enjoy stories while giving creators exciting opportunities to grow their reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/\">Distribute your music to Spotify and all other major streaming platforms around the world with RouteNote.
