Podcasts are not a medium where you naturally get discovered just by publishing. Apple Podcasts and Spotify are filled with many shows, and social media has countless pieces of information flowing through every day. Even if your show has great content, without an opportunity for people to learn about it, listeners who haven't yet discovered you won't be reached.
- You're publishing episodes, but they're not reaching new listeners easily
- You're unsure how to convey the appeal of your show
- Even when people search by show name or theme, it's hard to be found
- Despite promoting on social media, the response doesn't spread as much as you'd hoped
- Because you're not a celebrity, there are few opportunities for people to learn about your show
- You've been distributing consistently, but there are few pages or articles where you can introduce it
Podori is a podcast discovery service for Japanese-language podcasts that lets you search by genre, theme, and relevance. A show name, description, and distribution link alone aren't enough to fully convey the thoughts of the people creating the show or the reasons to listen.
We don't select interview subjects based solely on fame or follower count. Even if a show isn't widely known yet, if it has a clear theme and continues distributing with care, we introduce it.
What we want to convey in articles
- Why the show was started
- What kind of people should listen to it
- What is valued while continuing to distribute
- Which episode should first-time listeners start with
- What ingenuity goes into recording and editing

After the interview, Podori will organize the content and edit it into an easy-to-read article. Before publication, we'll have you review the content and adjust facts and wording before posting.
Audio interview via Zoom
We'll talk with you for about 30-60 minutes via Zoom. The conversation will be recorded, transcribed, and then edited into an article by Podori. You can keep your camera off if you prefer.
This method is suited for those who want to speak naturally while having a conversation.
Text-based written interview
Podori will send you interview questions. You'll answer each question in text, and we'll create an article based on that content.
This method is suited for those who have difficulty scheduling or who want to think through their answers at their own pace.
Audio data interview
While looking at the interview questions, record your answers using your smartphone's voice memo or similar. The audio will be transcribed and edited into an article.
This method is suited for those who find writing burdensome but also have difficulty scheduling a Zoom call.
If you choose a Zoom interview or audio data interview, depending on your preference, the edited audio may be published on Podori. We will never publish audio without your consent.
- Publish only the article; do not publish the audio
- Publish the article along with a portion of the audio
- Publish the article along with the edited interview audio
Even if we publish, we'll edit out retakes, long silences, personal information, and statements unsuitable for publication, and we'll have you review the content beforehand.
