Hulu and Disney+ are officially in the podcasting game and they’re doing it with style. From Dancing with the Stars to Only Murders in the Building, streaming platforms are rolling out companion podcasts that feel like a backstage pass. Fans get exclusive interviews with cast members, crew, and even eliminated contestants the very same night episodes air.

In this episode of Pod Savvy Guide, Steph dives into why companion podcasts are becoming the new “rewatch trend,” how mobile studios are changing behind-the-scenes content, and why even DIY podcasters should pay attention. With upcoming companion pods tied to Paradise, Percy Jackson and the Olympians, and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, this is just the beginning of a streaming shift that blends TV with podcasting like never before.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to keep creating this is it. Podcasting is here to stay, and your audience needs your voice.
