Netflix now offers more than 60 video podcasts on its service — and even though those aren’t breaking into the streamer’s most-viewed charts, the company is continuing to lean into the format. On Tuesday, Netflix said it is renewing its entire original lineup of video podcasts for additional episodes. That includes true-crime show “Murder With My Husband”; talk show “The Pete Davidson Show” hosted by the “Saturday Night Live” alum; pop-culture interview show “Shut Up Evan” hosted by Evan Ross Katz; “The Puzzle Room With David Kwong”; and “Allegedly,” a true-crime podcast from NBC News correspondent Ellison Barber.

The shows from Williams and Coben will premiere on Netflix later in 2026. Other Netflix exclusive video podcasts (available now or coming soon) include “The Rotten Files with Stephanie Soo,” “Wishbone Kitchen” with Meredith Hayden, “Last Trace With Kaelyn Moore” and “Couldn’t Agree Less with Allison & Isaac.” Netflix also is adding episodes of “The Pivot Podcast” and “Outlore with Eleanor Neale” next month.
