For the unversed, YouTube has announced that US creators can now create podcasts in YouTube Studio and inclusion of podcasts in the company’s Music app is coming soon.

The company tweeted from its Team YouTube account: “podcasts are a go! new features on Studio desktop now let you create a new podcast, set an existing playlist as a podcast and measure your podcast’s performance.”

Creators’ podcasts should only contain full-length episodes, organised in the order in which they should be consumed.
