February 04, 2025One-in-five hours of ad-supported audio is to podcasts

Americans listen to audio for almost four hours every day, and almost one-in-five hours listening to ad-supported audio is listening to a podcast. The data is released by Nielsen today in the company’s 2024 Quarterly Audio Report, including data from Edison Research. Commercial radio gets a 67% share of ad-supported audio. For those aged 18-34, podcasts are even more popular, taking up almost a third of all time spent listening to ad-supported audio. Positive numbers, but ones that show how much growth is possible.
48% of 18-34s in Australia listen to podcasts every month, according to new data - and podcast listeners are listening to more shows. The 2024 Australian Podcast Report was released today, released by Australian commercial radio industry body Commercial Radio & Audio.
The report, though, needs to be read with caution, since it relies heavily on data from the Triton Digital Podcast Ranker, which only lists participating publishers. One claim in the press release, quoted by Lizzie Young, CRA’s CEO, is that “63% of podcasts are achieving more than 100,000 average monthly downloads in 2024”. That simply isn’t true: based on our analysis, this number comes from the top 200 participating shows in the ranker (where, for example, in December, 139 of the 200 listed shows achieved more than 100,000 downloads - about 70%.) Most podcasts will achieve significantly less than this. Additionally, the report claims that total average monthly listeners in 2024 increased 8.5% year-on-year, but these are numbers for participating publishers, and as the small print notes, “numbers will increase as new publishers join”. The ABC joined in Dec 2023. The CRA wasn’t able to respond to us by press time.
Other Australian data includes the Deadset Studios PodPoll 2024, released in September.
mowPod Charts is a new replacement to Chartable’s chart ranking tool. “Forever-free”, the tool contains historic data, email notifications, and doesn’t require an account.

February 03, 2025Adelicious signs one of the UK’s biggest shows
Sponsored by Riverside. Create studio-quality recordings, edit in seconds, and repurpose effortlessly—all with Riverside’s latest updates. Trusted by top podcasters and brands like Tim Ferriss, Ali Abdaal, and Spotify, it’s their go-to creation platform. Try Riverside today and grow your podcast!
One of the UK’s biggest podcasts, Sh**ged Married Annoyed has signed with Adelicious. The show was with Acast, and joins other Avalon shows from Russell Howard and Frank Skinner on the podcast network. The award-winning show has spawned a book, a TV chat show, and had two live arena tours (including selling out Wembley SSE Arena and the O2).
The Podcast Business Journal interviewed Avalon co-founder Jon Thoday and Adelicious MD Andrew Goldsmith last year.
In 2020, podcasting in Türkiye grew faster than anywhere else on Earth. Now, the industry is part of a US $31mn digital audio ad market - and it’s only set to grow further. Rıfat Özcan writes for Podnews today, looking at the rapidly evolving Turkish podcasting ecosystem.
EarBuds today carries International Podcast Recommendations, from Andreea Coscai.
Kast Media’s bankruptcy procedure appears to have got a lot more complicated - the owner of Jim Cornette’s shows, Arcadian Vanguard, is suing Kast Media CEO Colin Thomson and his family members - and also suing LiveOne and PodcastOne. The complaint alleges that $6.9mn of cash went missing; claims that family members received two cars and a $7,665 Cartier watch; and also alleges that this was occurring with PodcastOne’s knowledge. The summons was served on Friday.
The Podcast Business Journal interviewed LiveOne’s Rob Ellin at the time.

Sponsored by Central Talent Booking. Transform Your Podcast Guest Lineup - Central Talent Booking delivers top-tier guests—celebrities, influencers, thought leaders, and compelling experts—to elevate your podcast. Discover more.
PodcastOne is to switch hosting to Amazon’s ART19. It had been using the relatively unknown Nox Solutions as a podcast host. The Podcast Index suggests Nox Solutions hosts around 1,277 shows - 1,077 of which are with PodcastOne and Launchpadone.
Docusign is the latest company with a new sonic logo. In this case, it’s described as a “red thread” that runs through all of Docusign’s marketing (and, we hope, podcast advertising). We’ve a few examples in the press release, and another in our podcast.
SiriusXM shared the company’s 2024 results. “What is working? Well, wouldn’t ya know it… it’s podcasts.” says Chris Peterson, in his analysis of the numbers. He adds that “it’s time for independent publishers to control their own monetization”.

January 30, 2025UK Political Podcast Awards winners
Sponsored by Central Talent Booking. Transform Your Podcast Guest Lineup - Central Talent Booking delivers top-tier guests—celebrities, influencers, thought leaders, and compelling experts—to elevate your podcast. Discover more.
The winners of the UK’s Political Podcast Awards were announced. Podcast of the year was Goalhanger’s The Rest is Politics, but Persephonica’s Political Currency and Electoral Dysfunction from Sky News won two awards. Acast shows won the most awards.
Yesterday, we linked to a presentation from German podcast marketers and publishers promoting the benefits of audio-only podcasts. It was in German. Sadly, viele Menschen sind faul und sprechen keine anderen Sprachen. The good news is - it’s now also available in English.
How does Acast market itself to potential advertisers? By podcast advertising, of course. The company has shared a bit of knowledge of how they do it.

January 29, 2025More listeners than ever to podcasts in US
Sponsored by Central Talent Booking. Transform Your Podcast Guest Lineup - Central Talent Booking delivers top-tier guests—celebrities, influencers, thought leaders, and compelling experts—to elevate your podcast. Discover more.
There are more listeners than ever to podcasts in the US, according to new data. The Triton Digital 2024 US Podcast Report also suggests that YouTube continues to be the most “preferred” platform for 33.1% of all podcast listeners, while Apple Podcasts has slumped to a new low: preferred by just 12.2%. The data, which is a free download, also contains more detail about the US Podcast Ranker.
Video podcasts are “not equally sensible and beneficial for all podcasts“. A group of German podcast marketers and publishers have worked together to produce a white paper explaining the benefits of audio-only podcasts. Advantages include better distribution, and monetisation, and audio podcasts have a 150% higher listen-through rate than video podcasts.
There have been a number of layoffs at SiriusXM, impacting the podcast teams and Earwolf. Podnews understands that 100 roles were impacted, representing 2% of the workforce, along with a number of changes to the company’s structure. The CEO Jennifer Witz called it a “profoundly challenging day”. One of those included is Amelia Chappelow, who was Executive Producer at Earwolf.

January 28, 2025Spotify launch recognition for most-streamed shows
Sponsored by Central Talent Booking. Transform Your Podcast Guest Lineup - Central Talent Booking delivers top-tier guests—celebrities, influencers, thought leaders, and compelling experts—to elevate your podcast. Discover more.
Spotify has launched Creator Milestone Awards, which will be given to podcasts that reach particular streaming levels on Spotify. It’s the first time Spotify has publicly revealed streaming numbers for podcasters across the platform. Like YouTube, award recipients will be hand-delivered a physical Spotify plaque.
Gold (500mn+ lifetime streams) includes Joe Rogan, Crime Junkie, Armchair Expert and Last Podcast on the left, but also two German podcasts. One of those, Gemischtes Hack, only has 285 episodes: so each episode has been played an average of 1,750,000 times, just on Spotify. (And even more impressive, when you know there are only about 120mn native German speakers.)
There are 13 Silver (250mn+ lifetime streams) awardees, including Call Her Daddy and The Daily, two Spanish podcasts, one German and one Portuguese.
There are 83 Bronze (100mn+ lifetime streams) awardees. Podcasts in “emerging markets” get Bronze after just 50mn+ lifetime streams.
SiriusXM has pulled its video versions of Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy from Spotify along with other Unwell Network shows. The shows will be viewable on YouTube and the SiriusXM app. Cooper posted on Instagram saying that you can watch on YouTube “for free”.
How do you make podcast advertising work better? Don’t make the ads dull and boring. Ads that have emotion or are otherwise interesting can work more than six times better than boring ones, according to a set of research compiled by Westwood One’s Pierre Bouvard. There’s a PDF, a video, and a white paper to download.

January 27, 2025The best podcast hosting company is…
Sponsored by Central Talent Booking. Transform Your Podcast Guest Lineup - Central Talent Booking delivers top-tier guests—celebrities, influencers, thought leaders, and compelling experts—to elevate your podcast. Discover more.
Buzzsprout is the best podcast hosting company, says TechRadar in a review that also gives special credit to Podbean, Libsyn, Captivate and Transistor.
Kamala Harris’s podcast strategy fell way short of Trump’s, says Ashley Carman: Harris didn’t appear to focus on a cohesive list of shows, which didn’t share similar audiences - making it hard to hit the same talking points. The article is in the latest edition of her Bloomberg newsletter, Soundbite.
To support podcast journalism, Podnews has snagged a deal on Ashley Carman’s Soundbite newsletter. You can grab Bloomberg’s Tech Newsletter Bundle at a 25% discount for the first year - which includes Soundbite and others.
The IAB suggests in its 2025 Outlook Study of ad buyers that growth of podcast ad spend will slow this year, and its market share will drop. Total advertising is set to grow by 7.3%; podcasting will just beat that, at 7.4%.
And, in a surprise, S&P Global Market Intelligence suggests that the US podcast industry won’t top $2bn in revenue until 2032. The IAB suggest it hit $1.9bn in 2023.

January 24, 2025How Apple Podcasts works with podcasts in China

Exclusive: Apple Podcasts has made changes to the way it makes podcasts available in China. Working with podcasters inside China, Podnews has learnt that Apple is now able to remove specific episodes from shows, and that those episodes are hidden from users even if a user tries the RSS feed in the Apple Podcasts app.
As two examples: Lex Fridman has 22 recent shows removed; the Joe Rogan Experience is missing eight recent shows.
We’ve written an availability checker for Apple Podcasts, to understand what is available where. More details in the article.
