Lemonada Media and Simon & Schuster Audio have unveiled a new podcast, "Your Next Listen," designed to bring extended previews of popular audiobooks directly to listeners. The weekly series offers full-chapter excerpts from a diverse lineup of genres, including thrillers, memoirs, romance and more.

The debut episodes feature excerpts from "The Night We Lost Him" by Laura Dave, "The Third Gilmore Girl" by Kelly Bishop and "The Ministry of Time" by Kaliane Bradley. Future episodes will highlight works by notable authors such as Hillary Clinton, Meg Cabot, and Stanley Tucci. Jackie Danziger hosts the series, which aims to help listeners discover their next great audiobook.

"We are thrilled to launch this project as the first collaboration in our overall development work with Simon & Schuster," said Lemonada CEO Jessica Cordova Kramer. "This is the first of many exciting projects we'll be partnering on, and we can't wait to bring it into your ears."

Simon & Schuster Audio President & Publisher Chris Lynch added, "We are confident that by introducing these compelling audio excerpts to new listeners in a weekly podcast, we will drive fans to finish what they've started."

The podcast builds on Lemonada's recent expansion into publishing, with the creation of Lemonada Books under Simon & Schuster's Gallery Books division. The imprint will debut with two titles inspired by Lemonada podcasts: Fail Better by David Duchovny and Last Day by Stephanie Wittels Wachs.

"Your Next Listen" is now available on major podcast platforms. For more information on featured titles, visit YourNextListen.com.
