It says Podcasts and not Video. My guess is that his is an audio only thing and we will need to wait for the video.

Why would you want to just listen to a TV show?

Yes, these are podcasts, not videos of the shows themselves…

I doubt the podcasts are just the audio of entire episodes. Most likely it’s a little promo bit about upcoming episodes or behind the scene audio from cast/directors etc.
