Hillary Clinton is launching her own podcast this spring on iHeartRadio.

The 2016 presidential candidate was inspired by guest appearances on Conan O’Brien and Howard Stern’s podcasts.

Clinton’s show will be inspired by the theme of her and daughter Chelsea's latest book, The Book of Gutsy Women, which shares stories of women that inspire them.

The podcast is currently untitled but is expected to host big-name guests including world leaders and politicians, along with celebrities, authors and even famous chefs.

According to Politico, the former secretary of state’s podcast aims to “share good news about problems that are actually being solved”.

It will be launched during the thick of the 2020 presidential election, though how far the former first lady plans to comment on the race remains unclear.

Tensions have continued to simmer between Clinton and 2020 Democratic frontrunner Bernie Sanders. In January she refused to say whether she would endorse Sanders should he become the Democratic nominee.

“He was in Congress for years,” she told The Hollywood Reporter. “He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him. Nobody wants to work with him. He got nothing done.”
