Dr. Seuss Dives Into Podcasts: ‘Cat in the Hat’ Series First Under Pact With Amazon’s Wondery (EXCLUSIVE)

for a slate of podcasts. The first title under the pact is “The Cat in the Hat Cast,” described as a “fantastical variety show-style podcast series hosted by everyone’s favorite red and white hat-wearing Cat.” The weekly series, set to premiere Sept. 18, will be available exclusively on the Wondery+ subscription service through the Wondery app and Wondery Kids+ on Apple Podcasts.

The companies expect to announce additional series in the coming weeks, with varying distribution models for each depending on the title. “Wondery Kids & Family has an incredible vision for how to bring to life our characters and stories in podcasting form,” Brandt said. “We believe this collaboration not only builds upon Dr. Seuss’ incredible legacy but also plays a key part of our bigger entertainment strategy for the Dr. Seuss franchise.”

Wondery had made a short list of potential partners with which to develop children’s podcasts and Dr. Seuss Enterprises was at the top, said Nicole Blake, GM of Wondery Kids & Family and Wondery’s head of franchise development. Then, before Wondery even reached out, “they called us,” she said. “The stars aligned.”
