<![CDATA[This article aims to describe the form and function of conversational implicature in the Close The Door podcast hosted by Deddy Corbuzier through a pragmatic approach. The podcast was chosen because it presents spontaneous, contextual spoken interactions rich in implied meanings. The study used a descriptive qualitative method with data sources in the form of conversations between the host and the interviewee in several podcast episodes. Data were collected through listening and note-taking techniques, then analyzed using conversational implicature theory based on Grice's cooperative principle. The results show that implicatures emerge through the use and violation of the maxims of quantity, quality, relevance, and manner. These implicatures function to convey criticism, satire, evaluation, and normative views indirectly. From a linguistic perspective, the speech in the podcast is dominated by informal, reflective and argumentative spoken language, so listeners need to understand the context of the speech situation to interpret the meaning correctly. These findings indicate that pragmatic studies in digital media can broaden public understanding of language use in modern, dynamic, contemporary communication.. Keywords: implicature; pragmatics; podcast; spoken discourse ABSTRAK Artikel ini mendeskripsikan bentuk dan fungsi implikatur percakapan dalam podcast Close The Door yang dipandu oleh Deddy Corbuzier melalui pendekatan pragmatik.
