September 23, 2025Earwolf studio table saved
Sponsored by SoundStack. Heading to Programmatic I/O and/or Advertising Week NY? Let’s talk fast, simple monetization to keep your podcast and streaming businesses growing.
Earlier this month, we mentioned that the Earwolf signature studio table had been “taken away” after the closure of its New York studio. Good news: SiriusXM’s Director of Podcast AdOps Kelsey Butterworth - who started working at Earwolf in 2016 - “staged a daring 11th hour rescue” with Jared O’Connell. The tables are now safe and sound at an undisclosed location north of the city, awaiting their next adventure.
PodAnalyst is a brand new tool launched today that helps podcasters unify their analytics across Apple, Spotify and YouTube. The product was founded by George Lejnine and advised by podcast industry veteran and former Head of Product at Cadence13, Jim Saraco - and podcasts with under 1,000 listeners can use the product free forever.
Amazon was the top spender in podcast advertising last month according to Magellan AI. GoDaddy increased its spend more than 44× in August according to the service.

September 22, 2025Paul Weller podcast leads to top-selling book
Sponsored by SoundStack. Heading to Programmatic I/O and/or Advertising Week NY? Let’s talk fast, simple monetization to keep your podcast and streaming businesses growing.
A podcast made by a fan of Paul Weller has turned into a top-selling book in the UK. The three-year podcast, which was initially released in 2020, ended with an interview with Paul Weller - but also a suggestion from Weller himself to turn it into a book.
Greg Glenday, the CEO of Acast, has called for the industry to work closer together. He made the comments in the latest edition of the Podnews Weekly Review.
NumberEight has partnered with DAX US to allow advertisers to target specific podcast episodes that connect with their core audience. The company has announced specific focused audience opportunities.

September 19, 2025Episode 4,000 for Adam Carolla
Sponsored by SoundStack. Heading to Programmatic I/O and/or Advertising Week NY? Let’s talk fast, simple monetization to keep your podcast and streaming businesses growing.
Adam Carolla celebrated his 4,000th episode with an interview with Jay Leno. His first episode was published on Feb 23, 2009, days after his radio show on KLSX ended.

Will Jimmy Kimmel’s cancellation affect podcasting? In the US, the owner of a large number of ABC affiliates, Nexstar, said it would no longer take Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show. (The company is currently in the middle of a $6.2 billion takeover of rival broadcaster Tegna, which needs approval from the US government). Brendan Carr, the chairman of the country’s media regulator the FCC, clarified in an interview that podcasting is not required to serve the public interest; but “broadcast TV is different”. ABC said that they would indefinitely suspend its production.

September 18, 2025Big increase in podcast listening in Canada
Sponsored by SoundStack. Heading to Programmatic I/O and/or Advertising Week NY? Let’s talk fast, simple monetization to keep your podcast and streaming businesses growing.
In Canada, monthly podcast listening has grown 19% year-on-year, and now 46% of all Canadians listen every month. That data is newly released from Signal Hill Insights, just in time for PodSummit YYC in Calgary, which kicks off tomorrow.
In July, Podnews covered Spanish public broadcaster RTVE, who blocked downloads from some open RSS podcast apps in favour of its own proprietary one. We’re delighted to report that users of AntennaPod are now able to listen to the broadcaster’s podcasts. Our reporting resulted in the team reviewing the app’s access.
Congratulations to Jenna Weiss-Berman, who is to be awarded a Gracies Leadership Award. The awards are taking place in November in New York City.

September 17, 2025YouTube announces dynamic ads and AI editing
Sponsored by SoundStack. Heading to Programmatic I/O and/or Advertising Week NY? Let’s talk fast, simple monetization to keep your podcast and streaming businesses growing.
YouTube announced a number of new services, including ways to grab the best bits from long-form podcasts to automatically make shorts; enhance live streams; add AI editing; and enable dynamically-inserted sponsorship messages (so you can “remove the sponsorship when the deal is complete, resell the slot to another brand or eventually sell the same slot to multiple brands in different markets”).
The lack of dynamic ads has been a significant pain point for podcasters, who have been using them on other platforms. Rumours of this feature were reported by Podnews in March.
Audioboom has announced that the company has now paid more than $325mn to creators worldwide. Over 13% of Audioboom’s revenue is now coming from video, it says: 60% of its creators are now producing video podcasts.
Got a random email that looks like it’s from a big podcaster, wanting you on as a guest - and offering to pay? Be careful with that, says WMBF News - it’s a new podcast scam that could install dodgy software onto your computer.

September 16, 2025The massive podcast market we’re all ignoring
Sponsored by SoundStack. Heading to Programmatic I/O and/or Advertising Week NY? Let’s talk fast, simple monetization to keep your podcast and streaming businesses growing.
“Ignoring Brazil isn’t just shortsighted — it’s bad business.” Renato Bontempo, the founder of the Brazil-based production company Bicho de Goiaba, writes for Podnews today with some astonishing figures about podcasting’s success in the country - a top 3 country in the world for podcast consumption, but mostly ignored by larger podcast companies.
iOS 26 has gone live on iPhone with a set of enhancements to Apple Podcasts. A new AI-powered “enhance dialogue” feature reduces background noise to make it easier to hear voices; playback speeds can now be saved per show and are more granular; “Browse” becomes “New” in the interface; and there are new categories in search. The app also has a new logo - we’ve asked Apple about updated “listen now” buttons.
Amazon Ads and SiriusXM Media announced a programmatic audio advertising integration to provide marketers using AmazonDSP the ability to access SiriusXM Media.

September 11, 2025On Air Fest expands
Sponsored by SoundStack Marketplace. More revenue secures the future of podcasting/streaming. Monetize shows easily in SoundStack Marketplace and keep great content flourishing.
After eight years, On Air Fest is to expand, “into an always-on cultural organization producing live shows, special projects, and brand + creator collaborations”. The Ambies awards ceremony will be part of On Air Fest in NYC next February. On Air @ Ludlow House is to host live tapings with creative storytellers and podcasters every fortnight; there is also the return of On Air Fest LA in November. (Disclosures)
A new podcast and radio production service run by an experienced audio executive has launched the Accent Academy, a free, one-year development programme for emerging creators. A small number of selected creators will be given the tools to build smarter formats, stronger shows and standout storytelling – with 100% IP retained.
Yesterday’s story about the AI slop podcasting company certainly kicked off some discussion. Matt Deegan writes: “My biggest surprise about the Inception Point AI crowd is what a poor job they’ve done with it.” Mark Francis reckons they’ve inflated the number of episodes they claim to be making. And Eric Nuzum says “It's all a steaming pile of hot garbage. It is truly, deeply, profoundly terrible.”
Listen Notes removed 4,063 podcasts from its database last month after determining that they were wholly priced with AI. Since December last year, it has removed 29,435 shows. The data is available here.

September 10, 2025The podcast factory making 3,000 episodes a week
Sponsored by SoundStack Marketplace. More revenue secures the future of podcasting/streaming. Monetize shows easily in SoundStack Marketplace and keep great content flourishing.
How many shows do you make every day? A new podcast network is using AI to flood podcast directories with more than 3,000 new episodes a week - and only four content staff. It’s from a company called Inception Point AI, headed up by former Wondery COO Jeanine Wright; shows are made for an apparent cost of just $1 an episode; and Spreaker’s programmatic ads mean shows can get into profit after as little as 20 listeners. Should you want to listen, here’s (at random) Knitting, hosted by Lila "Crafty" Walker: there’s no disclosure that the show is AI generated (though the show’s reviews have worked that out, calling it AI slop).
On that, Wright tells The Hollywood Reporter: “I think that people who are still referring to all AI-generated content as AI slop are probably lazy luddites.” The Luddites were English textile workers, opposed to the use of automated machinery due to concerns about worker pay and output quality. Where do we join?
Can AI be used for good? There are plenty of non-English podcasts that deserve a wider audience - and Paris-based Worldcrunch might have cracked the code to do it, with the launch of AI-powered (but human curated) translations. The company has launched Murder in Perugia, an investigative podcast series about the Amanda Knox affair, first created by Italian journalist Antonio Iovane.
ART19 has signed Beasley Media Group as a client.
