Netflix is stepping into podcasting in a big way Kill Tony: Mayhem at Madison Square Garden, a recorded live podcast filmed at Madison Square Garden.
In this short drive-home voice memo, I share my unfiltered reaction after pressing play on the special. The setup was huge: a live band, stage effects, “ring girls” with signs it wasn’t your typical podcast set. The format? Audition-style mixed with comedy. People get one minute on stage, the crowd cheers or boos, and pros from a second bucket step in when someone flops to keep the energy high.
Watching it was brutal at times harsh crowd reactions but what’s exciting is what this means for where podcasts are headed. If Netflix is investing in live podcast content, that’s a hint of what the future might look like for creators big and small.
So whether you’re thinking about doing a live show, filming your podcast, or turning moments into clips for social media, there are ideas here you can use even with a small setup.
