In Netflix Tudum’s announcement, the streamer says it will exclusively carry video versions of three major Barstool Sports podcasts starting in early 2026.
Audio versions will remain available on regular podcast platforms, while Netflix becomes the premium home for the video experience.
The move signals a deeper bet on sports conversation content alongside Netflix’s broader entertainment slate.
Verification
Dave Portnoy (statement via Tudum): “bring new audiences to each platform.”
Netflix (Tudum): “unfiltered commentary… sharp takes… undeniable humor.”
Analysis/Echotitbits take: Sports talk is sticky community media; Netflix is chasing that retention. Watch for more creator-led sports partnerships and how this impacts the broader video-podcast business model.
