Show Highlights:
  • We're seeing the emergence of networks with big budgets and so these networks can create high quality shows.

  • Now you're seeing Spanish audiences, like a booming period where we're seeing a lot of new companies like podcast networks. Just New in the game and doing a lot of high quality shows.

  • Now you're seeing that trend shift toward, people who are listening to podcasts in Spanish because they're getting that good, and that's had like a domino effect where now, we can see that more people like famous people are getting into it.

  • You're seeing a lot of interview style podcasts, you're seeing a lot of cross-promotion so you can see the same guy being interviewed by all of the podcasters and definitely there's a scene where there are some key players that are cross-promoting between each other and comedians, you see a lot of comedians guys who were doing stand ups and who had their Netflix specials. They're very likely to have a podcast as well.

  • I think podcasting can bring us a perspective into different areas of Mexico and the stories that you wouldn't otherwise listen to.

  • Being an audio guy, I think that there is very rich sound design storytelling. That's what really excites me the most. And I think these mediums give you a limitless canvas of exploration. Like you can do anything to you. And that's one of the things I love the most.
