Polymarket and Dear Media Launch Weekly Podcast 'What Are the Odds?'

The show will feed live prediction‑market prices into pop‑culture conversations hosted by rotating Dear Media personalities to create a new audience engagement format.

Overview

  • Polymarket and Dear Media announced the partnership on Thursday, June 18, 2026, and the first episode premiered the following Friday.
  • Full‑length video episodes will post on YouTube every Friday and audio will be distributed on major podcast platforms.
  • Dear Media will rotate established hosts including Claudia and Jackie Oshry, Taylor Strecker, Amanda Hirsch and Heather McMahan to lead each episode.
  • The program uses real‑money prediction markets as a real‑time gauge of public expectations, turning contract prices into topics and prompts for hosts to react to.
  • Polymarket has already appeared in entertainment coverage and host ad integrations, and the podcast could broaden mainstream exposure for prediction markets and give hosts a new way to engage listeners.
