Starting with WWDC 2019 and the big news that iTunes will never be the same to Apple’s latest email letting all podcasters know that all podcast categories will be changing and exactly how that affects podcasters. We don’t only keep it to Apple, we share the latest podcasting insight from Google I/O last month and so much more! Including the latest mean and median download number stats so that you can get some clear metrics to know where you and your show stand.

Audience feedback drives the show. We’d love for you to email us and keep the conversation going! Email [email protected] or call 412–573–1934. We’d love to hear from you!
