Spotify Top Podcasts Not Showing Up
Why aren’t Trending Podcasts available in my Spotify account? It’s a common question that we get these days. You have to know that the new charts have been recently rolled out and they’re available only in 26 markets worldwide. This means that some regions or countries don’t support this Spotify feature yet.
On the other side, popular podcast markets like the U.S., U.K., Australia, Germany, Mexico, Brazil and Sweden offer even more in depth data. ‘Top Podcasts’ are available by category allowing users to easier find high quality shows that interest them.
