Calling All Anglophiles: BBC Podcasts Land on Amazon Music in the US!
Attention podcast fans with a penchant for British wit and accents! We finally have some smashing news: BBC Podcasts have officially arrived on Amazon Music in the US and beyond! This marks the first time BBC’s extensive library is venturing outside the UK, opening up a world of enthralling audio content for American listeners.
Prime perk or podcast paradise?
For Prime members and Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers, get ready to delve into a curated selection of over 50 of the BBC’s most popular podcasts – all completely ad-free. We’re talking heavy hitters like “Americast” (offering an outsider’s perspective on the US), the “BBC Global News Podcast” for a worldly spin on current events, and even “Dua Lipa: At Your Service” for a dose of pop culture fun.
But wait, there’s more!
Even if you’re not a Prime member, you can still get your BBC fix. The deal also brings the BBC’s entire podcast catalog – that’s a massive library! – to Amazon Music’s free tier. You’ll hear some ads, but you’ll have access to a treasure trove of BBC content covering everything from science (“Infinite Monkey Cage”) to sports (“Planet Premier League”) to gripping mysteries (“World of Secrets”).
Expanding podcast horizons
This partnership between the BBC and Amazon Music is a win-win for listeners. The BBC gets to share its high-quality audio productions with a wider audience, and we, the American listeners, get to explore a fresh take on storytelling and delve into a vast array of topics.
So, fire up your Amazon Music app and get ready to discover your new favorite podcast – with a British twist, of course! You never know, you might just find yourself saying “brilliant” a lot more often.
