Whether you are interested in listening to podcasts to get some work done, or just want to enjoy a nice audio break, Spotify shows are a great option. And with a little bit of research, you can find the ones that you enjoy the most.
Gimlet’s How to Save a Planet
Earlier this year, Spotify acquired the podcast startup Gimlet and the accompanying podcast studio, Parcast. Among the changes at Gimlet is the hiring of former NPR executive and HBO exec Liliana Kim to lead Parcast. She reports to Julie McNamara, head of the company’s talk studios.
The company has also made significant staffing changes. According to the company’s latest earnings release, it cut 5% of its podcast headcount. In October 2020, Emmanuel Dzotsi will join as third co-host. It’s the company’s first time hiring someone from the world of TV.
How to Save a Planet is a podcast from Gimlet that will be available on Spotify. It features interviews with diverse guests and light humor. Its educational and engaging. You can check it out on Spotify’s website or Google Podcasts.
The podcast is also a collaboration with A Matter of Degrees. The show has been named a winner of the best podcast award by the Society of Professional Journalists. The podcast is not just about saving the planet, but also breaking down scientific concepts and answering the question: What’s the best way to save the planet?
Spotify has announced plans to cut the aforementioned 5% of its podcast headcount. It has also cancelled a number of original podcasts, including nine from Parcast and one from Gimlet. However, it will keep its in-house podcast studios intact.
As for the Parcast and Gimlet podcasts that are still in circulation, we’re not surprised to see that the Dictator will be departing in the second quarter of 2023. As for the other shows, we’ll see the following: Crime Show, Horoscope Today, Female Criminals, Mythology, and the Crimes of Passion.
The Spotify oxomembour may be the company’s latest layoff, but the How to Save a Planet podcast will be moving on to other places.
Dissect Podcast

Your Daily Podcasts
Whether you’re a podcast addict or just looking for some new shows to listen to, Spotify has a new feature you might want to check out. It’s called Your Daily Podcasts and it’s one of the company’s newest recommendations for listeners.
The new feature is available in the US, Canada, Mexico, Germany, Sweden, and the UK. You’ll be able to find it by logging into Spotify and clicking on the new hub in the Made for You section of the app.
Your Daily Podcasts works just like Spotify’s “Discover Weekly” feature, only it’s based on the podcasts you’ve been listening to recently. The list will also include new episodes of shows you like, as well as episodes from other podcasts that you might enjoy.
Spotify says that it has been testing this new feature for the past few months. The company has seen some positive results from this testing. It’s also planning to continue to improve the feature.

Release Radar
Getting your music onto Release radar for Spotify shows can be a great way to get your music noticed by new fans. But there are some things you need to know before you start.
To get your music onto Release Radar, you must have a good fan base. This is an essential part of the process, but you should also make sure your profile image is great and includes information about what inspires you.
During the first week of a song’s release, Release Radar will be responsible for about 14% of the streams. This means if you want to get your song onto Release Radar, you will need to send out a pitch to Spotify editors.
You can only have one song on Release Radar at a time. This means you will need to pitch your song at least seven days before the release date. This gives you a better chance of getting onto Release Radar and getting your songs onto other algorithmic playlists.
Spotify releases new music every week on a new algorithmic playlist called Release Radar. This is one of the most listened to personalized Spotify playlists worldwide, with over 16 billion streams so far. Getting your song onto Release Radar is a great way to get your music noticed and increase your streams.
Spotify Release Radar is updated weekly, so it is a good idea to send out a pitch if you’re planning on releasing a new song. It’s also important to make sure your music is fresh and new. If it’s a remix or re-release, it will not qualify for Release Radar.
Spotify Release Radar is also a great way for rising artists to reach new fans. This playlist will keep your supporters up to date with new releases and give them a chance to hear the latest music.
PR activity
During the 2016 holiday season, Spotify showed PR activity to its audience. These campaigns refocused Spotify’s marketing efforts, highlighting its goals for 2018. The campaign included a new feature called Blend, which enabled users to customize playlists based on the songs they liked. The company also launched seven new Spotify Original Shows that explored different aspects of music.
Spotify also started to develop creative advertisements, based on its vast database of user data. Spotify is already automating dynamic ad insertion on music, but will begin to run targeted ads based on user information. In addition, Spotify will also start displaying ads in other networks’ content. In addition, Spotify plans to expand its dynamic ad insertion to podcasts.
In addition to the creative advertisements, Spotify launched the Wrapped feature, which allows users to see their own listening habits and engage with others. Spotify is also planning to bring this feature to its mobile app. The feature, which is currently live, provides users with a snapshot of their listening habits, including their number of songs listened to, hours spent streaming music, and the number of listeners in different countries.
Spotify also created a Spotify community page that pulls together public playlists and allows users to see what their friends are listening to. Spotify plans to bring the feature to the mobile app in the coming months.
The company has also launched webinars and B2B whitepapers. In addition, Spotify has acquired podcast tech company Whooshkaa and hosting company Megaphone.
Spotify is also developing a feature called Streaming Ad Insertion. This will allow advertisers to insert ads into shows in real time. In addition, Spotify will continue to offer a fixed monthly price for its service, which includes ad-free listening.
