Oprah could be compared to King Midas. Everything this woman touches ends up turning into gold. He has been in the limelight for many years and always with extraordinary follow-up and success rates. So even a book review program has been successful. Don't get me wrong, books are always the best, but in a world of Netflix or Apple TV +, for a book club to succeed even for Doing a Podcast is to honor.
Perhaps this news should be the other way around. I explain. A book club may make more sense in podcast format than video. However, the reality is different and things have turned out so well for Apple and Oprah, that the program that she had on Apple TV + is not that it changes the format, it isi dont add a new format and it is none other than Podcast.
The series will start with 8 episodes and will talk about Isabel Wilkerson's book Caste (Oprah's Book .... Published in early August, it illustrates "the hidden hierarchy of human ranking that has shaped America." Shortly thereafter it was praised on the New York Times bestseller list and its author has been a Pulitzer Prize winner. Oprah Winfrey said the book "provides a new way of looking at racial inequality, giving rise to countless moments and helping us to truly understand America as it is now and how we hope it will be." A very fashionable topic in recent months.
The podcast will revolve around conversations with a group of guests as they explore the 'eight pillars of caste' set out in the book. Two episodes will be released each week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The trailer and the first episode of the podcast series are now available.
