Reddit now has its own official podcast

If you were sad about Serial, now there’s something else to fill that podcast-shaped void; Reddit has launched its own official podcast.

The new Reddit podcast aims to tell the story behind the things on its homepage, with the company saying it’ll follow up on interesting stories to get the real scoop.

Alexis Ohanian, Executive Chair at Reddit, described it as “30 for 30 meets This American Life with a spoonful of orangered.” The first episode covers the story of a Reddit user, Dante Orpilla’s life, who eventually became an employee at the company.
