The original series 'Silence in Bhopal' narrated by actress Clara Lago also lands on the platform, who will take us to the Indian city where one of the largest industrial disasters in history occurred. Her voice will tell us all the details of an event that still affects the population of Bhopal today. Experts in all kinds of fields, journalists, celebrities, and influencers have seen that the podcast allows them to connect directly with their audiences in a very dynamic and entertaining way.

Influencer and expert in sports and nutrition Patry Jordán, renowned journalist and television presenter Iker Jiménez, presenter of "LO+40" Xavi Martínez, or writer and YouTuber Javier Ruescas launch exclusive content on Podimo Premium.

Other programs that you can listen to exclusively as a Premium user include the personal development podcast of television presenter Teresa Viejo; the successful program of radio journalist Celia Blanco; relaxed conversations with interesting people in “What Alberto Rey says”: twelve one-on-one sessions between Alberto Rey and people you think you know, but may not, with the 90s as a recurring theme in the twelve conversations between the presenter and his guests (Imanol Arias, Elvira Lindo, Javier Cámara, Alberto Chicote, Ana Millán, among others); Mireia Canalda's podcast and the exclusive program of actress Ares Teixidó, among others. You will also learn the stories of twelve women in “With a Woman’s Voice”, led by the influencers and content creators Amarna Miller and Gakian. In this space, with a clear personal imprint, we fight and work to give voice to women, not only to the visible faces but also to everyday women who, in one way or another, claim rights and a way of seeing the world they live in. 

The Premium version also has room for history and curiosity with “Minimal Stories”, a show presented and directed by journalists Eugenio Hernández and África Egido in which for 30 minutes they dive into stories and anecdotes often forgotten by the general public. And if you like stories, with “Pixeland” you are in luck. Because it is the land of stories, a podcast by Jonan Basterra in which he tells the tales of everyday people that deserve to be told. He even dares to share stories from the coronavirus in the first person.

Not forgetting the true crime podcast that is causing a sensation among many fans of this genre, “Psycholand”: Kiko Amat and Benja Villegas's unique style will hook you to their stories about serial killers while inviting you to have a good time with their analyses and comments. And if you are a fan of true crime, you are in luck, because in “Criminal-mente”, the podcast by lawyer and criminologist Paz Velasco de la Fuente, you can delve into the scenes of the most media-saturated crimes of recent years, learn all the details and even travel into the mind of the killer to understand their criminal behavior. At Podimo, we also have room for health, care, and nutrition through “The podcast of Jana Fernández - A GUIDE TO LIVE WELL”, a place where its host shares her personal experience and learnings, as well as knowledge from the best experts. And all this so you can create your own guide to living well. 

“At Podimo, we believe that the podcasting industry should invest in creating new sources of income beyond advertising, developing new subscription models that compensate creators for their content, allowing them to focus on creating more content and engaging directly with their audience,” indicates Javier Celaya, head of the Spanish-speaking markets at Podimo. 

According to the VoxNest report, the listens of podcasts in Spanish have grown by 94% during the first half of this year, and during the last month, 41% of Spaniards have listened to content in podcast format, being the country with the highest proportion of listens in the world, as reported by Reuters Institute. Additionally, more and more listeners are tuning in to more podcasts during their daily tasks, with an average listening of 20 to 25 podcasts a month in sessions of 20 to 30 minutes long. 

“The Podimo app provides an exceptional podcast listening experience through very visual and intuitive navigation. Additionally, users will be able to discover new content related to their interests, thanks to the work of the content curation team, equipped with the latest technologies that, through smart algorithms, enable the recommendation of digital content aligned with users' tastes,” points out Idoia Cantolla, head of Podimo's content area in Spain.
