Making the Most of Your Podcast Back Catalog – PCI 470
Give Your Podcast Catalog New Life
Your podcast back catalog is one of the most powerful tools you already have — even if you don’t always think about it that way. Those older episodes aren’t outdated. New listeners are finding your show every day, and for them, everything in your archive is brand new.
Today’s Hosts: MacKenzie Bennett and Mike Dell
In this episode of Podcast Insider, we share practical ways podcasters can reuse, promote, and even monetize their existing episodes to grow their audience without burning out on constant new content creation.
Why Your Podcast Back Catalog Matters
Once an episode is published, it doesn’t stop being useful. Evergreen topics, interviews, and educational episodes can continue attracting listeners months or even years later.
Your back catalog is more than an archive — it’s a searchable library of content that can:
- Bring in new listeners through SEO and podcast app discovery
- Keep listeners engaged longer by encouraging binge-listening
- Highlight your expertise and authority in your niche
If your show covers timeless topics instead of breaking news, your older episodes may still be just as valuable today.
How to Bring Old Podcast Episodes Back Into the Spotlight
You don’t always need to create brand-new episodes to grow your show. Instead, try:
- Resharing older episodes when they become relevant again
- Updating show notes with fresh keywords, links, and summaries for better SEO
- Mentioning past episodes in new episodes (“If you liked this topic, check out episode…”)
- Creating playlists or collections of your best or most important episodes for new listeners
These small steps help listeners discover more of your content and stay subscribed longer.
Refresh, Revisit, or Rerun — The Right Way
Mike shares important technical tips for rerunning episodes:
- Always resave or rename audio files before reposting
- Add a short new intro explaining why the episode is being shared again
- Retitle reruns clearly so podcast apps accept them properly
Instead of replaying an episode exactly as-is, consider recording a short update or revisiting the topic with new insights.
Monetizing Your Podcast Back Catalog
Your archive can also become a source of revenue. In this episode, MacKenzie and Mike discuss ideas like:
- Turning transcripts into a book or digital guide
- Creating a premium feed with older episodes behind a paywall
- Promoting older episodes that already include ads or sponsorships
None of these are instant success strategies — but over time, they can reduce burnout, increase lifetime listener value, and create steady long-term growth.
Use Your Data to Guide Future Episodes
Pay attention to which older episodes continue getting downloads. Those topics often reveal:
- What your audience cares about most
- Which formats work best
- Where future content opportunities exist
Your back catalog can become one of your best planning tools.
🧠 Bottom Line
Your back catalog isn’t old content — it’s an ongoing opportunity.
With a little intention, your existing episodes can:
- Save you time
- Grow your audience
- Increase listener engagement
- Support monetization
- Help new listeners fall in love with your show faster
If there’s an episode you’re especially proud of, give it another moment in the spotlight.

00:00:05,599 --> 00:00:07,679

how to bring those episodes
12
00:00:27,324 --> 00:00:28,464
back into the spotlight,
13
00:00:28,980 --> 00:00:30,279
and some easy ways

your previous content. If you've ever felt the
16
00:00:34,579 --> 00:00:37,619
pressure to constantly create something new, this one's

at Blueberry Podcasting.
25
00:00:57,929 --> 00:00:59,710
Welcome. Let's dive in.
26
00:01:00,250 --> 00:01:02,890
The back catalog of a podcast can be
27
00:01:02,890 --> 00:01:05,209
very powerful. Now it depends you know, if
28
00:01:05,209 --> 00:01:06,890
you're doing a news show, a lot of
29
00:01:06,890 --> 00:01:09,069
that back catalog is not really
30
00:01:09,944 --> 00:01:10,444
relevant,
31
00:01:11,224 --> 00:01:14,025
only because, you know, the the information is
32
00:01:14,025 --> 00:01:14,765
no longer
33
00:01:15,064 --> 00:01:17,145
viable. You know? If you're talking about something
34
00:01:17,145 --> 00:01:18,525
that happened topically
35
00:01:19,145 --> 00:01:20,765
or, you know, something happened
36
00:01:21,064 --> 00:01:23,680
that really nobody needs to know about, that's
37
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,680
different. But if you're doing something that is
38
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:26,979
just general information,
39
00:01:27,519 --> 00:01:28,659
interesting conversations,
40
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,280
all that stuff, your back catalog can still
41
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:32,420
get a lot of traffic.
42
00:01:32,879 --> 00:01:33,379
Definitely.
43
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,019
Once it's been published, that doesn't mean it's
44
00:01:36,385 --> 00:01:38,625
only useful for that week. I mean, Podcast
45
00:01:38,625 --> 00:01:39,984
Insider, the way that we've been doing it
46
00:01:39,984 --> 00:01:41,825
for the past year, so, like, they these
47
00:01:41,825 --> 00:01:43,525
are evergreen topics.
48
00:01:43,905 --> 00:01:45,604
This is stuff that people can
49
00:01:45,905 --> 00:01:48,084
come back to or listen to
50
00:01:48,545 --> 00:01:51,140
years after it's been published. I mean, obviously,
51
00:01:51,140 --> 00:01:53,540
things change. But, overall, there's a lot of
52
00:01:53,540 --> 00:01:55,140
episodes from, you know, a year or so
53
00:01:55,140 --> 00:01:58,019
out that we could air now and would
54
00:01:58,019 --> 00:01:58,519
still
55
00:01:58,819 --> 00:02:00,500
be of interest to people. You know, and
56
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:01,780
we do that once in a while if
57
00:02:01,780 --> 00:02:03,640
we don't feel like putting out an episode
58
00:02:03,700 --> 00:02:04,439
that week.
59
00:02:05,015 --> 00:02:07,015
You know, we'll throw a rerun in. But
60
00:02:07,015 --> 00:02:08,634
be careful when you do reruns.
61
00:02:09,014 --> 00:02:11,574
Hate to get technical and geeky, but if
62
00:02:11,574 --> 00:02:12,875
you're gonna do a rerun,
63
00:02:13,415 --> 00:02:15,895
reedit the file or at least resave it
64
00:02:15,895 --> 00:02:18,715
under a different file name, the MP three
65
00:02:18,750 --> 00:02:20,590
or the media file if you're doing video.
66
00:02:20,590 --> 00:02:22,349
You know, and maybe record a little something
67
00:02:22,349 --> 00:02:24,590
saying, hey. You know, this is a rerun,
68
00:02:24,590 --> 00:02:26,990
but it's not relevant information. And then, you
69
00:02:26,990 --> 00:02:29,490
know, just make it a little bit different.
70
00:02:29,789 --> 00:02:30,289
Otherwise,
71
00:02:31,135 --> 00:02:33,295
this is all technical, but Apple won't take
72
00:02:33,295 --> 00:02:35,474
it if it has the same file name.
73
00:02:35,534 --> 00:02:37,375
And Spotify won't take it if it's the
74
00:02:37,375 --> 00:02:38,194
same post.
75
00:02:38,495 --> 00:02:40,575
Be careful with that. You know, retitle it,
76
00:02:40,575 --> 00:02:43,055
you know, rerun or something. That's another way
77
00:02:43,055 --> 00:02:44,974
to bring them back. Another thing is is
78
00:02:44,974 --> 00:02:46,034
go back yourself
79
00:02:46,889 --> 00:02:49,209
and listen to an old episode that might
80
00:02:49,209 --> 00:02:52,729
be relevant now. And instead of replaying that
81
00:02:52,729 --> 00:02:53,229
episode,
82
00:02:53,849 --> 00:02:56,009
revisit it. You know, if there's some sort
83
00:02:56,009 --> 00:02:58,489
of an update to the subject you're talking
84
00:02:58,489 --> 00:03:00,810
about or something more you wanna say about
85
00:03:00,810 --> 00:03:03,125
it, You know, add that to it and
86
00:03:03,125 --> 00:03:04,965
put that out as a new episode that
87
00:03:04,965 --> 00:03:07,125
doesn't take nearly as much work as starting
88
00:03:07,125 --> 00:03:07,865
from scratch.
89
00:03:08,324 --> 00:03:11,365
Yeah. That's also good for updating your show
90
00:03:11,365 --> 00:03:14,085
notes as well because that's gonna bring people
91
00:03:14,085 --> 00:03:16,409
in if you are, you know, updating something
92
00:03:16,409 --> 00:03:18,270
to be more relevant to SEO
93
00:03:18,650 --> 00:03:20,989
or just something that people are searching nowadays.
94
00:03:21,289 --> 00:03:23,209
That'll bring people to your episode as well
95
00:03:23,209 --> 00:03:26,169
when they're searching for whatever topic it is.
96
00:03:26,169 --> 00:03:28,330
It's a great way to say, hey. We
97
00:03:28,330 --> 00:03:29,069
have episodes
98
00:03:29,370 --> 00:03:30,189
about this
99
00:03:31,155 --> 00:03:32,215
from two months ago.
100
00:03:32,594 --> 00:03:33,254
If this
101
00:03:33,635 --> 00:03:35,955
episode is something that you like, go check
102
00:03:35,955 --> 00:03:38,194
out a couple more from that month or
103
00:03:38,194 --> 00:03:41,314
something like that. It's definitely good. I think
104
00:03:41,314 --> 00:03:42,995
a lot of people utilize this around the
105
00:03:42,995 --> 00:03:43,495
holidays,
106
00:03:44,194 --> 00:03:45,895
which I see nothing wrong with.
107
00:03:46,250 --> 00:03:47,870
Even, like, in a new episode,
108
00:03:48,169 --> 00:03:49,849
you know, I listen to a lot of
109
00:03:49,849 --> 00:03:53,289
aviation podcasts, and they'll talk about, you know,
110
00:03:53,289 --> 00:03:55,150
the the one that I listen to interviews
111
00:03:55,289 --> 00:03:58,650
people. And they'll bring up something about that
112
00:03:58,650 --> 00:04:00,330
person. And he said, and if you wanna
113
00:04:00,330 --> 00:04:02,105
listen to it, go back to episode blah
114
00:04:02,105 --> 00:04:04,105
blah blah. So you're mentioning the the old
115
00:04:04,105 --> 00:04:06,105
episode and the new episode, and that can
116
00:04:06,105 --> 00:04:07,004
drive traffic.
117
00:04:07,465 --> 00:04:08,365
Yeah. Definitely.
118
00:04:08,905 --> 00:04:11,724
You know, it just keeps everything sorta cohesive
119
00:04:11,944 --> 00:04:13,645
and, running together.
120
00:04:14,025 --> 00:04:15,405
You know, so many times
121
00:04:15,750 --> 00:04:17,350
I do the same thing, you know. I
122
00:04:17,350 --> 00:04:19,189
know I talked about this before, then I'll
123
00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:20,810
go back and listen to that old episode
124
00:04:20,870 --> 00:04:22,709
and decide whether I wanna do a new
125
00:04:22,709 --> 00:04:23,930
episode about that,
126
00:04:24,310 --> 00:04:27,350
rerun that one, or, you know, something of
127
00:04:27,350 --> 00:04:28,169
that sort.
128
00:04:28,535 --> 00:04:31,514
It's a wealth of information for you even
129
00:04:31,574 --> 00:04:33,574
because, you know, well, you know, if you've
130
00:04:33,574 --> 00:04:35,894
already covered that subject and you wanted to
131
00:04:35,894 --> 00:04:38,294
cover it a little deeper or update or
132
00:04:38,294 --> 00:04:39,995
whatever, it gives you a resource
133
00:04:40,470 --> 00:04:42,650
to, utilize that back catalog.
134
00:04:43,189 --> 00:04:44,710
One of the ways that you can do
135
00:04:44,710 --> 00:04:45,210
this
136
00:04:45,589 --> 00:04:47,610
is by building a playlist
137
00:04:48,230 --> 00:04:50,870
of of these old episodes that you think,
138
00:04:51,270 --> 00:04:53,350
deserve a little bit more love. I think
139
00:04:53,350 --> 00:04:54,970
that's a really cool way to
140
00:04:55,664 --> 00:04:56,164
utilize
141
00:04:56,625 --> 00:04:58,704
your time as a podcaster saying, like, hey.
142
00:04:58,704 --> 00:05:00,224
These are ones I'm really proud of and
143
00:05:00,224 --> 00:05:03,664
think are really important for listeners to get
144
00:05:03,664 --> 00:05:06,464
to because it's also really good for, like,
145
00:05:06,464 --> 00:05:09,199
new listeners, new subscribers, followers, whatever you wanna
146
00:05:09,199 --> 00:05:11,199
call them. And it just takes some pressure
147
00:05:11,199 --> 00:05:12,560
off of you to put out, you know,
148
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,420
a new episode every once in a while.
149
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,319
Yeah. Yeah. And then, of course, you know,
150
00:05:16,319 --> 00:05:19,040
I mentioned in the intro there that, there's
151
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,220
ways to monetize your back catalog.
152
00:05:21,665 --> 00:05:23,584
And, you know, some of them are are
153
00:05:23,584 --> 00:05:25,745
easy, some of them not so easy, but,
154
00:05:25,985 --> 00:05:28,384
you know, just ways that you could put
155
00:05:28,384 --> 00:05:30,245
all that information to use.
156
00:05:30,545 --> 00:05:31,764
One of them is
157
00:05:32,464 --> 00:05:34,545
write a book. I know several people that
158
00:05:34,545 --> 00:05:37,045
do this where they've got evergreen content.
159
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,660
And what they'll do is they'll get transcripts
160
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,740
of all their old episodes,
161
00:05:42,439 --> 00:05:45,000
put them together, edit them into a sending
162
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,920
kind of a book form. And Right. That
163
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,680
seems kind of intimidating for a lot of
164
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,475
people, I think. Oh, yeah. Very much.
165
00:05:51,014 --> 00:05:52,455
Very much. So, you know, I'm not saying
166
00:05:52,455 --> 00:05:54,055
it's easy, but that's the way to do
167
00:05:54,055 --> 00:05:55,275
it. It's,
168
00:05:55,895 --> 00:05:58,715
you know, I I think of, Grammar Girl
169
00:05:59,175 --> 00:06:00,235
as a good example.
170
00:06:00,775 --> 00:06:04,529
She's written several books, and they're mostly based
171
00:06:04,529 --> 00:06:07,110
on the topic she's covered in her podcast.
172
00:06:08,050 --> 00:06:10,769
But she's actually a writer, so she probably
173
00:06:10,769 --> 00:06:12,529
started from scratch on a lot of that.
174
00:06:12,529 --> 00:06:14,529
But, you know, it was all motivated by
175
00:06:14,529 --> 00:06:15,430
her back catalog.
176
00:06:16,115 --> 00:06:18,134
And then I know another one that,
177
00:06:18,754 --> 00:06:20,995
every year he puts out a pretty much
178
00:06:20,995 --> 00:06:23,875
a book about compilation of everything he covered
179
00:06:23,875 --> 00:06:24,535
that year.
180
00:06:25,154 --> 00:06:27,475
That's pretty cool. Yeah. And, you know, and
181
00:06:27,475 --> 00:06:29,314
then, you know, sell it for $5 on
182
00:06:29,314 --> 00:06:31,160
Amazon or whatever and then get you a
183
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,079
little, money in your pocket. Plus, it's a
184
00:06:33,079 --> 00:06:35,100
great archive for that information.
185
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:36,839
I mean, even if you don't share it
186
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,199
with people, it might just be fun to
187
00:06:38,199 --> 00:06:38,939
have for yourself.
188
00:06:39,639 --> 00:06:41,720
Sure. Sure. And, you know, and it's not
189
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,879
a word for word transcript thing. He goes
190
00:06:43,879 --> 00:06:44,620
through and rewrites
191
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,564
the sections, but, you know, he starts with
192
00:06:47,564 --> 00:06:50,464
the transcript. And, you know, now that transcripting
193
00:06:50,605 --> 00:06:52,225
isn't that hard to do anymore,
194
00:06:52,525 --> 00:06:55,025
at least a decent transcript, you've gotta edit.
195
00:06:55,645 --> 00:06:58,444
You know? But that's a possibility. Another one
196
00:06:58,444 --> 00:06:58,764
is,
197
00:06:59,324 --> 00:07:01,985
and we have this on Blueberry, Blueberry premium.
198
00:07:02,479 --> 00:07:04,660
So what you could do if you wanted,
199
00:07:04,959 --> 00:07:05,779
limit your
200
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,360
public feed to whatever number of episodes you
201
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,100
wanna give out for free for however long,
202
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,479
and then all the old ones republish in
203
00:07:14,479 --> 00:07:17,454
a premium feed and then charge for that.
204
00:07:17,514 --> 00:07:19,134
You know, for the longest time,
205
00:07:19,514 --> 00:07:22,394
Libsyn was doing that as a feature where,
206
00:07:22,394 --> 00:07:24,954
you know, you'd say, okay. The latest 20
207
00:07:24,954 --> 00:07:26,974
episodes are available to everybody.
208
00:07:27,514 --> 00:07:29,534
After that, you have to buy the archive.
209
00:07:29,910 --> 00:07:31,509
And, you know, you could do the same
210
00:07:31,509 --> 00:07:33,529
thing with now now Blueberry premium.
211
00:07:34,150 --> 00:07:37,189
Now you'd have to republish those episodes, I
212
00:07:37,189 --> 00:07:39,110
believe, but, I don't think it would be
213
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:40,949
all that hard to do. And you might
214
00:07:40,949 --> 00:07:42,790
make a little money on that. Again, you
215
00:07:42,790 --> 00:07:44,069
know, none of these are gonna make you
216
00:07:44,069 --> 00:07:44,569
rich.
217
00:07:45,675 --> 00:07:47,675
Right. And, you know, one of these things
218
00:07:47,675 --> 00:07:50,314
are none of them are really a a
219
00:07:50,314 --> 00:07:50,814
one
220
00:07:51,435 --> 00:07:52,814
one shot that's gonna
221
00:07:53,194 --> 00:07:55,035
change the game for you. But if you
222
00:07:55,035 --> 00:07:56,875
do a little bit of this, a little
223
00:07:56,875 --> 00:07:58,555
bit of that, I think it it tends
224
00:07:58,555 --> 00:08:01,009
to add up over the year, you know,
225
00:08:01,009 --> 00:08:03,029
so that there's there's less of that podcaster
226
00:08:03,170 --> 00:08:04,310
burnout, I think.
227
00:08:04,770 --> 00:08:06,529
Yeah. It's also good just to leave them
228
00:08:06,529 --> 00:08:09,810
public and, you'll get some traffic to certain
229
00:08:09,810 --> 00:08:13,009
episodes. Just all depends on your subject matter.
230
00:08:13,009 --> 00:08:14,884
And, again, you know, let's say you did
231
00:08:14,884 --> 00:08:17,845
an episode five years ago that's relevant to
232
00:08:17,845 --> 00:08:19,145
something going on,
233
00:08:19,685 --> 00:08:22,324
promote that episode. You don't don't republish it
234
00:08:22,324 --> 00:08:24,965
or anything. Just promote it. It's available. Get
235
00:08:24,965 --> 00:08:26,425
it out there. Yeah.
236
00:08:26,789 --> 00:08:29,129
Especially if, you know, you have advertising
237
00:08:29,509 --> 00:08:31,769
on that episode or something like that, like,
238
00:08:32,230 --> 00:08:34,870
depending on how you're doing your sponsorships and
239
00:08:34,870 --> 00:08:37,669
how that is all set up, just promote
240
00:08:37,669 --> 00:08:39,589
the old episode. You don't have to republish
241
00:08:39,589 --> 00:08:42,404
it or anything like that. There is generally
242
00:08:42,865 --> 00:08:45,264
enough social media stuff going on that people
243
00:08:45,264 --> 00:08:47,825
will, you know, pick it up. They'll that
244
00:08:47,825 --> 00:08:50,304
old episode that you said give this a
245
00:08:50,304 --> 00:08:52,865
shot and word-of-mouth, and and things will go
246
00:08:52,865 --> 00:08:53,524
from there.
247
00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:55,679
Right. You know, the longer you do it,
248
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,379
the more you got to choose from.
249
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,139
Also true.
250
00:08:59,919 --> 00:09:01,919
You know, we've we're we're up to, what,
251
00:09:01,919 --> 00:09:03,540
470
252
00:09:03,759 --> 00:09:05,519
official episodes of this
253
00:09:05,855 --> 00:09:08,115
That is program. And, you know, there's probably
254
00:09:08,254 --> 00:09:10,335
more in the feed or in at least
255
00:09:10,335 --> 00:09:12,575
on the website that we didn't count as
256
00:09:12,575 --> 00:09:13,715
an official episode,
257
00:09:14,175 --> 00:09:16,254
in the number. And so, you know, and
258
00:09:16,254 --> 00:09:17,855
a lot of that is evergreen. You know,
259
00:09:17,855 --> 00:09:19,955
some of the earlier shows were more topical.
260
00:09:20,175 --> 00:09:22,259
Yeah. But, you know, they might be fun
261
00:09:22,259 --> 00:09:24,019
to listen to what was going on ten
262
00:09:24,019 --> 00:09:25,399
years ago in podcasting.
263
00:09:26,500 --> 00:09:28,179
Yeah. I mean, one of the like, an
264
00:09:28,179 --> 00:09:30,440
example of the way that we have republished
265
00:09:30,580 --> 00:09:33,220
or just promoted an episode when we don't
266
00:09:33,220 --> 00:09:34,899
necessarily have time to put out a new
267
00:09:34,899 --> 00:09:35,639
one is,
268
00:09:36,004 --> 00:09:38,245
like, if we featured a tool that we
269
00:09:38,245 --> 00:09:40,825
have saying, you know, hey. We have Vidapod.
270
00:09:41,125 --> 00:09:43,125
This can make your life a lot easier
271
00:09:43,125 --> 00:09:44,884
if you're doing any type of, you know,
272
00:09:44,884 --> 00:09:47,065
video and YouTube content as a podcaster.
273
00:09:48,004 --> 00:09:50,769
And if we see that that is popular
274
00:09:50,769 --> 00:09:52,370
right now or, you know, we have a
275
00:09:52,370 --> 00:09:54,149
lot of people signing up for Vidapod,
276
00:09:54,529 --> 00:09:56,470
maybe we just rerelease that episode.
277
00:09:56,850 --> 00:09:59,329
It's not a bad thing to, to bring
278
00:09:59,329 --> 00:10:01,829
back up. Yeah. There's a lot of creative
279
00:10:02,514 --> 00:10:05,475
ways of, using your back catalog. It's not
280
00:10:05,475 --> 00:10:06,534
just old content.
281
00:10:07,154 --> 00:10:08,214
It's an opportunity
282
00:10:08,514 --> 00:10:10,355
with a little intention. It can save you
283
00:10:10,355 --> 00:10:12,595
time, grow your audience, maybe make you a
284
00:10:12,595 --> 00:10:14,534
little bit of money, help new listeners,
285
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,960
you know, that may not have gone back
286
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:17,940
into your catalog,
287
00:10:18,799 --> 00:10:21,360
learn more about your show and fall in
288
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,440
love with it. So if you take anything
289
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,679
away from this episode today, it's that your
290
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,080
back catalog isn't old content. It is an
291
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:28,580
opportunity.
292
00:10:29,375 --> 00:10:31,134
Exactly. You know, you already done all the
293
00:10:31,134 --> 00:10:34,835
hard work. Little small tweaks these past episodes
294
00:10:34,894 --> 00:10:37,534
can keep working for you. You know, bringing
295
00:10:37,534 --> 00:10:40,355
in new listeners, keeping people engaged longer.
296
00:10:40,815 --> 00:10:41,315
Absolutely.
297
00:10:41,909 --> 00:10:43,990
So we hope that you use your back
298
00:10:43,990 --> 00:10:46,070
catalog to good use. If there's an older
299
00:10:46,070 --> 00:10:48,709
episode that you're really proud of, definitely give
300
00:10:48,709 --> 00:10:50,730
that episode another moment in the spotlight.
