Drew Afualo’s popular podcast The Comment Section is entering a new era with Acast. The weekly comedy series from the creator, host, and New York Times bestselling author will now be available through Acast, with full episodes also expanding to YouTube.
Known for its honest conversations, humor, and unfiltered takes on pop culture, The Comment Section features Drew sitting down with celebrities, creators, comedians, and other notable guests to discuss everything from internet culture to everyday life.
Originally launched in 2021 through Brat TV’s Past Your Bedtime YouTube channel, the podcast later became a Spotify exclusive in 2023. Throughout its run, Drew has welcomed a wide range of guests, including Chappell Roan, Cynthia Erivo, Brittany Broski, Bretman Rock, Meghan Trainor, Trixie Mattel, and more.
“Drew is one of the most unique and influential voices in the creator space today,” said Yishai Seidman, Director of Development at Acast. “The Comment Section connects with audiences through authenticity, humor, and conversations that feel genuine.”
Drew Afualo shared her excitement for the partnership, saying, “The Comment Section has been such a meaningful part of my journey, and I’m thrilled to bring the show to even more people through Acast and YouTube.”
With millions of followers across TikTok and Instagram, Drew has built a loyal online community through her signature humor and outspoken personality. In 2024, she released her bestselling book Loud: Accept Nothing Less than the Life You Deserve, becoming the first Samoan woman to appear on the New York Times bestseller list.
The move to Acast marks the next step for The Comment Section as the podcast continues growing across audio and video platforms, giving fans more ways to watch, listen, and connect with Drew’s conversations.
