“Let more pods become a tv series next year,”

“Patrik Syk on the strongest poddtrenderna”

“This is a kulturartikel which is a part of Aftonbladet’s opinionsjournalistik.”

“In many ways, the year 2018 has been the daily nyhetspoddens years. It began with the New York Times, The Daily in the spring of 2017 has now spread across the whole of our auditory world and the daily nyhetspoddar during the past year become a regular feature of many people’s media consumption. We at Aftonbladet launched the Aftonbladet Daily in september, for example.”

“But there is another trend that has gone a bit under the radar but can have equally large implications for the future poddande: poddarna that become tv series.”

“It may sound trite but it’s actually something revolutionary. Dramathrillern Homecoming (which among other things, we recommended in Poddpodden), went the first two seasons of the podcast, then as a book and in the autumn was the large-scale tv drama with no less than Julia Roberts in one of the lead roles. The series has become a hit, and season two is scheduled to be released in 2019.”

“In the year 2017, the years of true crime-the success of the Dirty John adapted for the screen, and during the winter to Black Tapes go the same way.”

“So what does this mean for podcastindustrin? In particular, it will mean that the tv companies who in the past have been cautious to invest in podcastfiktion (Marvel exemption continues to invest in its magnificent series of Wolverine) now hopefully drop a bit on the handbrake. With Homecoming as the Black Tapes as focal opens a whole new market for the lucrative tv giants to the other hand, use podcastens clearly the cheaper production as test balloons for some of the stories, and partly for real bets with the ambition to have several intäktsben to stand on.”

“So maybe next year will be the year when we get to see the really big dragons to step into podcastvärlden. It would of course have both their advantages and disadvantages. But above all, let us hope that 2019 be the year when we get more really välproducerade fiktionspoddar.”

“Tonje in Glimmerdalen: this Year’s advent calendar in the SR is not only a really exciting, but even something as modern as an interactive (somewhat) experience via Google Home. Fun!”

“Fördomspodden: Sweden’s smartest intervjupodd continues to deliver superb listening. 78 section it has become, not a single one of them weak.”
