Episode notes
Surprised By A Netflix Offer
- Jemma Sbeg unexpectedly learned Netflix was interested in signing her podcast and felt stunned and incredulous at first.
- She told only a few people and became superstitious about not jinxing the opportunity while preparing to say yes.
Netflix As Distribution, Not Replacement
- Being on Netflix doesn't mean the podcast is leaving other platforms; video episodes moved off YouTube but audio remains.
- Jemma frames the deal as distribution expansion rather than a replacement of the podcast's core format.
Regional Availability Limits Reach
- Geographic rollout matters: Netflix initially released the show only in the US and Canada, leaving international listeners waiting.
- Jemma acknowledges limited control over platform distribution and promises updates when availability expands.
