The deal follows&nbsp;Spotify&rsquo;s landmark contract last month with podcast juggernaut Joe Rogan, who is moving his podcast&nbsp;<em>The Joe Rogan Experience&nbsp;<\/em>to the music streaming platform this later this year. The&nbsp;<em>Wall Street Journal&nbsp;<\/em>first reported Kardashian West&rsquo;s deal on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s unclear what the financial terms for the deal are; media reports said Rogan&rsquo;s exclusive contract with Spotify was&nbsp;worth more than $100 million. It&rsquo;s unlikely Kardashian West&rsquo;s is as lucrative, as she&rsquo;s not migrating an existing popular podcast to Spotify&rsquo;s platform like Rogan did, but starting an altogether new one. Spotify declined to comment on the specifics of the deal.<\/p>\n<div>\n<aside><q>Spotify is paying for high-profile exclusives in the podcast space<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<p>Kardashian West is a vocal advocate for criminal justice reform and has been studying to become a lawyer through an apprenticeship program. Through her studies, she has worked extensively with the Innocence Project, a nonprofit that focuses on exonerating wrongly convicted individuals through DNA testing and advocating for broader criminal justice reforms. The podcast, which will be&nbsp;distributed under the Parcast network Spottily acquired last year, will spotlight both Kardashian West&rsquo;s involvement and the investigative work of co-producer Lori Rothschild Ansaldi. Both will co-produce and co-host the show.<\/p>\n<p>The deal is just the latest in Spotify&rsquo;s&nbsp;ongoing push to capture more of the podcasting landscape. The company&nbsp;purchased Gimlet Media, maker of popular podcasts&nbsp;<em>Reply All&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;<em>The Pitch<\/em>, in 2019. Back in February, Spotify&nbsp;purchased&nbsp;<em>The Ringer<\/em>&nbsp;&mdash; Bill Simmons&rsquo; culture and sports website and podcast network &mdash; primarily for its network of popular shows.<\/p>\n<p>With deals like Rogan&rsquo;s and now one with Kardashian West, Spotify has established itself as the most well-funded company in the podcast space. It&rsquo;s willing to pay for exclusivity, and it&rsquo;s clearly interested in chipping away at the dominance of other platform owners like Apple and, to a lesser extent, YouTube, where plenty of podcasters also post video versions of recordings. (Rogan&rsquo;s popular YouTube channel will no longer contain full episodes after his Spotify deal kicks in fully later in 2020.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n<div><strong>See Campaign: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2020\/6\/17\/21294863\/kim-kardashian-west-spotify-exclusive-podcast-innocence-project-deal-announced\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2020\/6\/17\/21294863\/kim-kardashian-west-spotify-exclusive-podcast-innocence-project-deal-announced<\/a><br \/><b>Contact Information:<\/b><br \/>Nick Statt<\/p>\n<p><b>Tags:<\/b><br \/><a href=\"\"><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/artificial-intelligence-newswire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Artificial Intelligence Newswire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/wire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Wire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/global-regions\/united-states\/\" rel=\"category tag\">United States<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/language\/english\/\" rel=\"category tag\">English<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"image\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"cwdfimg\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Contact Information:<\/h3>\n<p>Nick Statt<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"233\" height=\"24\" src=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/4000-logo-175.png\" alt=\"\">Kim Kardashian West has entered into a deal with Spotify to produce and host a new exclusive podcast.
