Takeaways

Podcasting 2.0 is an evolving movement that aims to improve the podcasting and podcast consumption experience for everyone.

Implementing Podcasting 2.0 features should be based on the goals and needs of individual podcasters and their audiences.

Reviews and ratings do not directly impact podcast rankings, but they can provide social proof and engagement opportunities.

Engaging with listeners and focusing on the positives is more important than dwelling on negative reviews.

App support for Podcasting 2.0 features is still limited, but the recent support from Apple is a positive sign for the future of the movement.
