PodcastOne (NASDAQ: PODC) announced today a partnership with digital media powerhouse BuzzFeed to launch a brand‑new original podcast series, Phone A Fangirl. The 12‑episode series will feature high‑profile K‑Pop guests such as Tomorrow X Together, ZeroBASEONE, KAI, and Mingyu x S.Coups of SEVENTEEN. Within 24 hours of its debut, the show amassed over 100,000 plays, underscoring the strong demand for K‑Pop‑centric content.
The collaboration brings together PodcastOne’s white‑glove production and distribution capabilities with BuzzFeed’s extensive digital reach and audience engagement tools. Together, they aim to capture the 120 million‑strong social following of the featured artists, opening a new, highly engaged demographic for advertisers and expanding PodcastOne’s footprint in the lucrative K‑Pop market.
Phone A Fangirl is positioned as a limited‑run series within PodcastOne’s strategic development pipeline, designed to test a new format that blends fan interaction with professional podcast production. The series will be distributed across PodcastOne’s existing channels—including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and iHeartRadio—leveraging the company’s multi‑platform reach.
By adding a high‑profile, fan‑centric series to its portfolio, PodcastOne is poised to drive additional ad revenue and deepen its relationships with both creators and advertisers. The partnership also signals PodcastOne’s intent to diversify content offerings and tap into new audience segments, potentially setting the stage for future collaborations with other media brands.
