Spotify today unveils the first-ever RADAR Creators Philippines, spotlighting emerging Filipino podcasters redefining the local podcasting scene. From Kuya Kim Atienza’s Ano Ba Talaga? With Kuya Kim and Karylle Tatlonghari-Yuzon’s K’s Drama, to Chariz Solomon and Buboy Villar’s Your Honor, Sophie Prime’s DAGOK TIME!, and Yani Villarosa’s yani’s room—each representing a unique facet of Filipino storytelling.
Building on Spotify’s long-standing commitment to champion Filipino voices, RADAR Creators is an extension of the platform’s support to the country’s booming podcasting community. The program provides on-platform editorial promotion, marketing support, and mentorship opportunities, empowering creators to reach wider audiences and build meaningful connections with listeners.
“Filipino creators are pushing the boundaries of podcasting, using audio and video to tell stories that are real, relatable, and uniquely theirs,” said Carl Zuzarte, Head of Studios at Spotify Southeast Asia. “Through RADAR Creators, we’re amplifying the voices of emerging Filipino audio talent, giving them the platform and support to shape Filipino storytelling.”
The Philippines has become one of Spotify’s top 5 podcast markets in Asia-Pacific. The share of Filipino podcasters publishing video has grown by nearly 65% year-on-year, making Spotify the home for the country’s most expressive and community-driven voices.
