Emma Chamberlain's Exclusive Deal With Spotify—Our Favorite Anything Goes Episodes
Everyone’s favorite influencer, Emma Chamberlain, has made an exclusive deal with Spotify. On February 23rd, Chamberlain’s podcast, Anything Goes, became only available on Spotify. With the love that society has for Emma, there is no doubt that this deal will bring many new subscribers to the platform.
The partnership was first announced on November 17, 2022, when Chamberlain’s promotion video was released. Following the promotion video, she posted a “thank you,” to her fans via the Anything Goes Instagram account.
She writes, ”Thank you all from the BOTTOM of my heart for listening to Anything Goes for the past few years. I cannot begin to express how grateful I am. Partnering with Spotify is going to allow me to evolve Anything Goes in ways I’ve always dreamt about. I am so excited. And I love you all so much.”
The 21-year-old has had a close relationship with Spotify since she was 14 years old. Currently, the star has a following count of 500,000 on the platform.
“Spotify has played a huge role in developing my love and passion for music, and I am consistently wowed by the way the platform continues to evolve,” she tells Variety.
Chamberlain released the podcast’s first episode, “Welcome To Anything Goes,” on February 14th of 2020. As of March 3rd, Anything Goes is ranked as the second most popular podcast on the platform—proving even more that Emma deserves this partnership.
The podcaster discusses a range of topics including fashion, relationships, emotions, fears, society, social media, and more. Her responses mainly stem from personal opinions and experiences, but they never fail to resonate with her listeners. In addition, she tells storytimes of growing-up as well as her life as an influencer.
Though the theme of each episode varies, the podcast is commonly known for Chamberlain's motivational and comforting advice.
Listeners love the podcast because of how relatable it is. The episode topics often involve situations or feelings that most people experience, such as issues with body image or burnout. These discussions convey a sense of being understood by listeners.
Snippets of audio from her episodes are often used on TikTok to create “day-in-the-life” videos, thus influencing users to listen to her podcast.
Fans of the podcast share their immense love for the podcast on the Anything Goes Instagram page. One user joked, “Therapy: Expensive. Anything Goes: FREE.”
Someone else commented, “I love this podcast Emma, I literally fall asleep to it at night because it relaxes me so much :) so much relatability, vulnerability, and eloquence in your words!”
Since signing the deal with Spotify, Chamberlain has hinted at having guests on the show for the first time. It will be exciting to see who she chooses to bring on the podcast. Our fingers are crossed for Tucker Pillsbury, also known as ROLE MODEL—Emma’s current boyfriend.
In addition, she has begun filming her podcast episodes. Now, Spotify users have the option to watch or listen to her episodes on the platform.
Chamberlain tells Nylon, “I’m inspired to grow my show, Anything Goes, into something even bigger through the addition of video episodes, interviews, and more, and I’m honored to have Spotify by my side.”
These video episodes have been bringing a sense of nostalgia to those who watched her Youtube videos.
Chamberlain’s rise to fame is credited to her Youtube channel. During the past year, she has taken a break from the platform.
The star has occasionally returned to post travel-related videos but has yet to start vlogging again.
“To be honest, I’m not ready to go back and be a regular video creator, because I don’t know what I want to do yet,” Chamberlain tells The New York Times.
This statement leaves the impression that it might be a while before she returns to the platform full-time—that is if she decides to. This is why users are excited and grateful to see her on their screens again, even if it is just to watch her talk while sitting on a couch with her cats.
We have compiled a Spotify playlist of our 15 favorite Anything Goes episodes, though it was extremely hard to choose just 15. The playlist contains episodes related to fashion, advice, stories, and Emma’s thoughts on certain concepts, such as nepotism.
Listen to these episodes while you clean your place, shower, work out, do your skincare routine, or anytime and anywhere you please. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
