In May 2010, Spetz began video blogging at the YouTube channel "Lilla bloggen". In 2014, Spetz was a travelling reporter for Musikhjälpen and travelled to Mozambique.[4] Spetz has also been a panellist at Intresseklubben on SVT.[5]

He was one of the co-hosts alongside Gina Dirawi for the final of Melodifestivalen 2016.[6]

In 2016 he wrote and starred in a one-man autobiographical show, Mormor jag vet att du är i himlen, men har du tid en timme? ("Grandma, I know you're up in heaven, but do you have a minute?"), an ode to his deceased grandmother.[7] It was shown on SVT in 2019.[8]
