Fast Company is introducing two podcast series and a YouTube video series a month after premiering three new YouTube weekly series: "You Have To See This," "Fast Comedy" and "Changing The Game."
The two podcast series will be called "Secrets of the Most Productive People" and "Creative Conversation.” They will alternate with new episodes every Wednesday.
“Secrets of the Most Productive People" will look at how “ultra-productive people get it all done,” according to a statement. It will focus on the practices, tools and traits behind successful businesses and people and how they are utilized to increase productivity and profitability.
Fast Company's Kate Davis and Anisa Purbasari will host the series, which will launch June 6. The first guest will be Dr. Gary Zammit, from the Sleep Disorder Institute of NY.
Each episode will range from 15 to 20 minutes.

Fast Company’s new YouTube series is called "Passion Project" and will give a behind-the-scenes look at celebrities' side projects and businesses. The magazine's YouTube channel has 44,000 subscribers.
