Heavyweight is a podcast created and hosted by American-Canadian humorist Jonathan Goldstein where he helps people try to resolve a moment from their past that they wish they could change. The show was produced by Gimlet Media, which was absorbed into Spotify Studios. Goldstein told The New Yorker that the name "Heavyweight" is meant to suggest the emotional burdens that each of us carry around. The podcast was first released in 2016, and ran for eight seasons. Gimlet and Spotify announced in December 2023 that the podcast would not be renewed, and would discontinue production after its final season. On October 15, 2024 the podcast published from its Twitter account "...We've been looking for a new home for the show, and we should have more news to share with you very soon. Stay tuned!"
