Spotify Quietly Launches Jackie Oshry Weinreb and Claudia Oshry's Podcast

There's a new podcast in Spotify that you might want to check out.

Spotify launched a new pop culture show last week on Spotify Live. The new show entitled, "Breaking Bread," immediately rose to podcast chart and now rank at number 11 after taking the number two spot for most of the week, according to The Verge.

The show's popularity is probably attributed to its hosts, Jackie Oshry Weinreb and Claudia Oshry, also known as Instagram's girlwithnojob. The controversial hosts might also be the reason why Spotify has been quiet with the show's launch.

Why Does Spotify Remain Quiet with the Launch of 'Breaking Bread'?

"Breaking Bread" follows the model of other Spotify Live shows like "After Hours with Alex Cooper." The original show takes place on the Live app and later on, it is posted as a podcast on Spotify.

Spotify has been quiet about the launch of "Breaking Bread." It received no promotion from the company. No press release about the show was issued, and it was not pushed on any of its social channels.

The Oshry's promotion on their social accounts and podcast seems to be the only promotion that the show got.

Spotify did not issue a statement why it has been quiet about "Breaking Bread," but it's silence on the show's launch may have something to do with the backlash it has received from Joe Rogan's show.

Being the undisputed biggest podcast in the world, it is clear that Spotify needs Rogan. However, the company's support for Rogan has led to some reputational damage.

Although "Breaking Bread" is inoffensive, the show was launched at a time when Spotify is being particularly cautious.

Why are Jackie Oshry Weinreb and Claudia Oshry Controversial?

According to BuzzFeed News, Claudia and Jackie, together with their sisters Olivia and Margo Oshry, have built a social media empire. They made this possible by creating multiple Instagram accounts.

Claudia is known as @GirlWithNoJob. She is the most successful of the sisters with more than three million followers. You'll find her account filled with a variety of relatable memes and stolen tweets, according to Buzzfeed News.

Jackie, on the other hand, runs the popular Instagram account @jackieoshry. She has more than 200,000 followers. She posts occasional joke and a large volume of selfies.

The other sister, Margo, is also an Instagram sensation while Olivia is the executive producer of Claudia and Jackie's Youtube talk show.

While Claudia and Jackie are already famous with their huge Instagram followers, they became more controversial when The Daily Beast reported that their mother is the controversial Pamela Geller, who is know for her views that many have described to be extremist.

The girls have not denounced their mother's views. Instead, they have tried to hide their connection to Geller. The girls also removed family photos that include their mother on Instagram, and only posted family picture with just the four of them.

According to The Verge, Claudia and Jackie had both previously posted statements that others have called racist and anti-Muslim on social media. But they eventually apologized and deleted their Twitter accounts.
