Everyone says podcasting is already saturated, but Kevin Smith would disagree.
While most platforms focus on distribution, he’s betting on AI as the core experience. As co-founder of Snipd, Kevin argues that the future of podcasting isn’t about more shows, but about smarter listening: capturing key ideas, surfacing highlights, and creating shareable knowledge from endless hours of audio.
In this conversation, Thomas Bustos pushes on the big questions: is AI enhancing the podcast experience, or is it reshaping it entirely? What happens when AI curates your takeaways better than you can?
For anyone who thinks AI is just a background tool, this episode is a wake-up call. The podcast player itself is becoming intelligent.
