**Netflix Takes a Massive Leap into Video Podcasts with Pete Davidson and Michael Irvin**
Hey there, podcast enthusiasts! You might want to sit down and take a deep breath because I’ve got some major news to share. Netflix is finally jumping into the podcast game in a big way, and I couldn’t be more stoked!
The streaming giant is launching two brand-new video podcasts, featuring none other than comedian sensation Pete Davidson and former NFL superstar Michael Irvin. Yes, you read that right – we’re talking video podcasts, baby!
**Pete Davidson’s Kickoff**
First up, ‘The Pete Davidson Show’ is a comedy goldmine, promising hilarious conversations with friends and industry peers that’ll give us an inside look at life as a comedy superstar. With new episodes dropping every Friday, we’ll get to see Pete’s unfiltered humor and charm shine in a whole new way.
**Michael Irvin Takes the Field**
On the other side of the field, Michael Irvin’s ‘The White House’ is about to score big with sports fans. Get ready for in-depth analysis and commentary on the world of football, with notable guests like Brandon Marshall stopping by to share their two cents. With Irvin’s charisma and sports expertise, this show is guaranteed to be a touchdown.
**A Giant Step for Netflix**
This move marks a significant milestone for Netflix, which is looking to take on the likes of YouTube’s impressive 700 million hours of podcast views per month. But with millions of podcasts out there, Netflix knows it’s got its work cut out for it. Will they be able to hold their own against the likes of YouTube, Spotify, and Barstool Sports?
**The Competition Ramps Up**
It’s worth noting that rival streaming services have already got their own podcasts on the platform, including iHeartMedia’s ‘Expensive Chelsea,’ Spotify’s ‘My Favorite Murder,’ and Barstool Sports’ ‘The Ringer.’ These titles aren’t available in full on YouTube, which is an interesting twist in the ongoing podcast wars.
**What’s Next for Podcasts?**
At TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, Netflix’s chief tech officer Elizabeth Stone hinted at the company’s plans for more interactive content, with video podcasts being a key part of the mix. It’s clear that Netflix is taking a calculated risk, but with shows like these two, they might just revolutionize the game.
Get ready to mark your calendars for the launches of ‘The Pete Davidson Show’ and ‘The White House with Michael Irvin,’ and who knows? Maybe we’ll see more video podcasts from Netflix in the near future!
Stay tuned for more podcasting news and updates on all things Netflix!
