Netflix teams up with iHeartMedia to boost podcast game

Entertainment Dec 17, 2025

Netflix is stepping up its podcast offerings by partnering with iHeartMedia.
Starting in 2026, you'll find over 15 hit video podcasts—like My Favorite Murder and The Breakfast Club—streaming exclusively on Netflix in the US.
It's a clear move to take on YouTube and make Netflix more than just a place for movies and series.

What changes for listeners?

New and select past episodes from these podcasts will only be available on Netflix (at least for video), so you might miss them on YouTube.
But if you prefer audio, don't worry—iHeartMedia keeps those rights, so you can still listen on iHeartRadio or wherever you usually get your podcasts.
This follows Netflix's recent deal with Spotify, showing they're serious about becoming a go-to spot for all kinds of content.
