Music streaming service Deezer announced on Tuesday that it has added podcasts to its offer in France, the UK and Sweden, with more countries to be added 'very soon.'

More than 20,000 shows are available covering news, entertainment and sports, including podcasts from Slate, The Financial Times, WNYC, French radio stations Europe 1, RFI and Radio Nova, French magazine Télérama and Sweden's Sveriges Radio.

The move was made possible by the incorporation of Stitcher, a radio and podcast app that Deezer acquired in October.

The podcasts are available via mobile or desktop.
