Netflix and iHeartMedia in Talks Over Video Podcast Licensing Agreement
Update: 2025-11-04
Description
Netflix and iHeartMedia are in talks for a licensing deal that could make Netflix a major player in the video podcast scene, rivaling YouTube. This comes after Netflix's recent agreement with Spotify to exclusively stream certain podcasts. The deal could potentially include popular iHeartMedia shows like The Breakfast Club and Stuff You Should Know, but it's unclear which ones. Meanwhile, Tubi has signed a deal with Crime Junkie host Ashley Flowers, adding to the growing trend of platforms seeking podcast exclusivity. The implications for podcast fans and creators are significant, as the shift away from YouTube could either boost or harm the reach of popular shows.
