December 26, 2024How many ads in podcasts? Where do you live?

Mobituaries with Mo Rocca is one of the biggest podcasts in the US, produced by CBS News and monetised by iHeart. Yet, depending where you listen, you get significantly more advertising.
We compared the same episode, downloaded from Brisbane, Los Angeles and New York. The ads are marked here in yellow. When downloaded in Australia, you get just two 30” ads (for a gambling company); when downloaded via a VPN in California, the adload was ten minutes 29 seconds (20% of the whole show). New York listeners get even more.
In our second spot break, in California we were served a 2’55” break. Yet, one Podnews reader on the East US coast heard the same episode: they were given a five minute spot break at that point. In total, they were given 18’40” of ads in the same show. Yikes. (Is our reader a desirable audience member, perhaps?)
Oddly, in California the second spot break was exactly the same as the third spot break.
Cumulus Media, the owner of the Westwood One Podcast Network, might be delisted from NASDAQ again, after the company traded below $1 a share for more than thirty days. It’s got until the middle of next year to sort things out, though. It was last delisted in 2017.
Happy Christmas to ART19, which certified to IAB v2.2 podcast guidelines on Dec 23. The IAB requires annual recertification, yet four companies still appearing in the IAB’s list were last certified in 2021 - three from iHeart (Omny Studio, Spreaker and Voxnest); and the German podcast host Audiorella.

December 24, 2024Sweet growth for Crowd Network
Sponsored by Sounds Good, from CBC. From the staff at CBC Podcasts, Sounds Good is a bi-weekly newsletter that offers the latest in news, events and industry buzz from podcast creators and producers. Subscribe now.
In the UK, Crowd Network has seen revenues grow by over 80% for the fourth consecutive year, the company says. The buzz around the podcast network includes live shows, video-first podcasts, and award nominations.
Is Apple Podcasts getting more popular? Libsyn posted another small increase in share-of-download for Apple Podcasts for November 2024, up to 46.9%. (However, any episodes uploaded as video to Spotify won’t count in these figures, even if only listened in audio form).
Something we didn’t spot at the time: SXM Media withdrew from the US Triton Digital ranker in October. We gather another large publisher is out of Triton’s ranker from Jan 1. Triton Digital is owned by a competing podcast network: iHeart, and in New York, the company moved into iHeart’s offices in November.

Happy holidays - for many, it’s a last day in the office before two quiet weeks. For many more still, it’s podcasting as usual over the break, so we will be publishing as normal across the holiday period. We’ve got you!
A special “Hark List” has been published: a look at the state of podcasting in 2024, with clips from a number of different shows. It’s hosted by our Editor, James Cridland, with clips from Buzzcast, Vergecast, our own Podnews Weekly Review, and plenty more. You can listen to it here, or, better, download the Hark app to listen and explore more new shows to listen to).
The Podnews Weekly Review this week interviews, among others, Jessica Cordova-Kramer, the CEO of Lemonada Media. She talks about how the company has maintained high ad rates, and how they’re doing video, too. Here’s the full 30-minute interview on Podnews Extra.

December 19, 2024Global size of the podcast market
Sponsored by Understood, from CBC. From CBC, Understood goes deep on the current events, people, and cultural moments shaping society. Seasons span four episodes, hosted by journalists with an existing expertise on the story. Now accepting pitches.
How big is the global podcast market? Justin Jackson’s research website has increased its estimates. It suggests that 2024 saw around $3-3.4bn in global ad-sales; that the hosting business is worth around $100-150mn, and that podcast events and conferences are worth $15-20mn. The estimates don’t include YouTube. Sources are given: and it’s open for others to contribute. The IAB estimated US podcast ad revenue at $1.95bn for 2023.
Google has launched a new tool made to “transform your content into AI-generated audio discussions”. And, in much the same way as the company has five different messaging apps, this one is called Google Illuminate AI, which seems to be much the same as another product from the company, Google NotebookLM. Some people suggest it’s a little better; we’ve noticed the voices sound a little different. Meanwhile, in Google NotebookLM, you can now talk to the AI podcast hosts, which you can’t do with the AI podcast hosts in Illuminate AI. There’s a strategy here, if only we could see it.
Talk Easy with Sam Fragoso is to switch from Pushkin to Lemonada Media. It will begin releasing episodes under the Lemonada banner on January 5th.

December 18, 2024TuneIn tunes out: layoffs and outdated data
Sponsored by Understood, from CBC. From CBC, Understood goes deep on the current events, people, and cultural moments shaping society. Seasons span four episodes, hosted by journalists with an existing expertise on the story. Now accepting pitches.
TuneIn appears to have tuned away from podcasts. After three sets of layoffs, which have not been reported until today, the company hasn’t let creators add new podcasts for the last ten months. It is also not communicating with content creators.
Podscribe has launched a new, real-time podcast ranker. It monitors YouTube as well as podcasts, and offers demographic data, “rising” shows (so you can spot shows that are going viral), and works using both Podscribe’s existing prefixes and campaign pixels. It’s available to Podscribe clients; the company will also release monthly emails with ranker data.
On Air Fest has published more speakers for its Brooklyn event in mid-February. Speakers include Taylor Lorenz, Dan Taberski, and Ashley Carman.

The UK’s Goalhanger has launched its first multichannel ad campaign, in partnership with Spotify. The video ads, which will be shown across social media, show Spotify users switching between individual podcasts (though the “p” word isn’t used) - is it the best ad for a podcast company yet? You can watch it here.
Lower Street has announced speakers for its Brand Podcast Virtual Summit 2025 - including brand new research from Signal Hill Insights, the Branded Podcast Benchmark Report. Other speakers include experts from the New York Times, Morgan Stanley, and Jay Acunzo. The event is free.
Yesterday, we reported on Licensync, an Italian company charging for linking to podcasts. While ASSIPOD, the Italian Podcasting Association is listed as a partner on Licensync’s website, ASSIPOD have told us that they are not a partner; that their logo is used on the website without authorisation; and they have already requested its removal. We’ve asked Licensync for comment; and added ASSIPOD’s statement to the article.

Exclusive: A company in Italy is sending invoices for more than $7,300 to multiple podcast directories and apps for listing six Italian podcasts. In a special report today, Podnews examines what Licensync is doing - and suggests that this is another reason why podcasting could benefit from a trade association to help protect our industry.
A BBC World Service investigation has suggested that one of the world’s biggest podcasts, Diary of a CEO with Steven Bartlett, has been accused of spreading fringe theories and harmful health information - including that cancer can be treated by following a keto diet, rather than proven treatments; and that gluten intake causes autism. The company that makes the show, Flight Studio, suggests it’s merely “freedom of expression”.
