On Tuesday, Amazon Music announced that they have rolled out the Topics feature on top podcasts. It is now available for all Amazon Music subscribers in the US on iOS and Android.

With Topics, you can effortlessly search for podcast episodes by inputting topics mentioned in them. The company also confirmed that they have plans to increase the coverage of topics. This will help the platform get an increased number of related podcast episodes with wider topics.
