Today, Talkhouse – the award-winning media company and podcast network that’s home to leading titles in the worlds of music, food, politics and beyond - has announced the addition of A View From A Bridge to its already impressive roster of programming. One of Instagram’s most-watched storytelling platforms, with 600K+ followers and tens of millions of views, A View From A Bridge features candid interviews with everyday passersby, renowned musicians, actors, activists and artists, all standing on a bridge while holding the series’ iconic red telephone. Hosted by producer and artist Joe Bloom, the show offers a poetic glimpse into the person’s life, story or opinion – something only they share with the world – presented in a stirring stream of consciousness.

Now, A View From A Bridge’s new audio podcast joins the likes of SubwayTakes – which recently hit #2 on Spotify’s overall Top Podcast Chart, and was named one of the Best Podcasts of 2025 by the platform – as well as How Long GoneBlank Check, Alison Roman's Solicited AdviceLife of the Record, Craig Finn's That's How I Remember It, Santigold's Noble ChampionsBjörk: Sonic Symbolism and more in the lauded Talkhouse network. 

Originally published in a short video format, A View From A Bridge’s viral episodes are drawn from much longer and deeply personal conversations with Joe Bloom. The official A View From A Bridge podcast releases extended cuts in carefully-curated, thematic episodes, offering listeners the chance to experience the stories and subjects in much more depth.

“Joe is doing something entirely unique and singular,” says Ian WheelerCo-Founder and Publisher at Talkhouse“We’re honored to be a part of it and to help it grow.” 

Recent episodes include a four-part discussion of the complexities of parenthood, interviews with notable musicians like Perfume Genius, Franz Ferdinand’s Alex Kapranos and Sleaford Mods’ Jason Williamson, a selection of stories from people who left home for safety, identity, or self-discovery (featuring Syrian activist and filmmaker Waad Al-Kateab), reflections on experiences that awaken our most primal instincts and remind us of the fragility and beauty of life (featuring poet and musician Kae Tempest), an exploration of relics with SubwayTakes’ Kareem Rahma and others. Recent guests on A View From A Bridge also include Jacob Collier, Cameron Winter, Little Simz, Ichiko Aoba, David Byrne, Cynthia Erivo and many more. 

The addition of A View From A Bridge continues a tireless 2025 for Talkhouse, which added States Of Independence: Beggars Banquet, TASTE's This Is TasteMusic Person,KCRW's Question Everything With Brian Reed and KCRW's Left, Right, And Center to the network earlier this fall. The new additions are supplemented by the release of Fela Kuti: Fear No Man, the acclaimed 12-part series hosted by Jad Abumrad (RadiolabDolly Parton's America) that investigates the life and art of musician, activist and Nigerian icon Fela Kuti, and was just named the #1 Best Podcast of 2025 by The New Yorker
