These are the 10 most popular podcasts on Spotify Mexico today

Considered one of the most “intimate” digital formats, Podcasts have gained fame and positioned themselves among the tastes of the Mexican public following the arrival of streaming platforms in the new millennium, such as Spotify.

Podcasts are audio products available through files or streaming platforms and one of their great advantages is that the user can listen to it whenever he wants and as many times as he wants.

However, the podcast is not something new, rather it is a product that enjoyed great popularity at the beginning of the 21st century, but which then he was relegated by the arrival of compact discs, ipods, among others.
