Definition
A podcast that is recorded and distributed in video format in addition to or instead of audio-only format. Video podcasts are published on platforms including YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts, capturing the visual dimension of conversations — including facial expressions, body language, and studio environment — that audio-only formats cannot convey. The rise of video podcasting has been accelerated by YouTube's investment in podcast features and Spotify's video podcast capabilities. For creators, video podcasting enables a single recording session to produce both a full-length video and an audio podcast, maximizing content output from a single production effort.
