Google has made it clear that it is going all-in on podcasts not only as an entertainment medium but also as a source for information.

As part of that ambition, the company announced today that you can now find — and listen to — podcasts episodes right in your Google Search results.

Similarly to how video, news, and image results appear in a separate area after conducting certain Search queries, so will podcast episodes.

The feature is live right now on the web version of Search for users in the United States searching for topics using the English language.

Eventually, you’ll also be able to find and listen to podcasts using Google Assistant.

However, this functionality isn’t present yet.

Google is taking the next step in making podcasts easier to find.

The company will now surface individual podcast episodes in search results, so if someone searches for a show about a niche topic or an interview with a specific person, Google will show them potential podcast episodes that fit their query.

The company will also soon allow people to ask Google Assistant to play podcasts about specific topics, and it’ll find episodes to play.

For now, people have to search using the word “podcast,” so if you want to find a show that talks about golden retrievers, you’ll have to search “podcasts about golden retrievers” or “golden retriever podcast.” Once you choose one to listen to, it’ll open in Google Podcasts’ web app.

The same command structure applies to Google Assistant, so users will have to say, “Hey Google, play a podcast about golden retrievers.”

Eventually, Google says it’ll support third-party playback, which is important for podcasts that are exclusive to certain platforms.

Google is making it easier to find and listen to audio content specific to your search interests, with playable episodes surfaced in results that start rolling out today.

Playable podcasts will show up in results when you use “podcasts” as a keyword in your search, in combination with other terms.

It’s intended to deliver relevant results freed from the confines of a dedicated podcast player, and Google also intends to extend this search feature to queries that don’t even specify “podcast” as it refines its algorithms.

Google is also going to be rolling out this inline playable results feature for the search function in Google Podcasts on the web, and for Google Assistant.

If you’re logged in, it’ll also sync your results so you can pick up from wherever you left off in the dedicated Google Podcasts app.

This should be good for discoverability, since it means that a much broader potential audience can stumble across your podcasts than would be possible with existing tools, and sample them on the spot.
