Spotify Podcasts

[swagswagger]

Hey there, it seems as if I can't play Spotify Podcasts on my Google Nest Audio or the Nest Hub (2nd Gen).

Either by voice command or connecting cia the Spotify App on my Phone or my Win11 Laptop. When I try to play it via Laptop App while connected to my Nest Audio it says "Spotify can't play this right now. If you have the file on the computer you can import it." 

I however can play any Music on both the display and the Nest Audio.

This is very frustrating because having Podcasts in the background really helps for doing tasks.

Hope I'll find help here

Hey swagswagger,

Thanks for reaching out. I know how relaxing it is to listen to your favorite music and podcasts on your Google Nest Audio and Nest Hub (2nd gen) - help is here.

A few questions:

• When did the issue start?
• Do you have Spotify premium account?
• Is the issue isolated on specific music or podcasts only? Please provide the titles. 
• Are you able to play music and listen to podcasts on Spotify app from your phone?
• What are the steps that you've done?

Looking forward to your response.

Cheers,

Muddi

Hey, sorry for not replying, I have a lot to do.

1) Not sure when it started, because I haven't really tried it before.

2) Yes I have a premium acc

3) It is isolated to podcasts only

4) I am  able to listen to music everywhere. Podcasts are also available everywhere except my google Nest devices

5) I've tried playing it from my phone and then connecting and also tried it via voice commands.

Hey swagswagger,

Thanks for coming back to me. To confirm, are you able to listen to Podcasts using the Google Assistant on your phone? Could you tell us a sample of Podcast that you're trying to play? Also, what is the response of your devices? 

Keeps us posted.

Cheers,
