From Paris to Podcasts: Navigating Downloads, CPMs, and App Updates

  • Summary

  • In this episode of "The Podcast Podcast," Andy Nelson and Pete Wright take listeners on a journey through the world of summertime podcasting. They explore the impact of the Paris Olympics on podcast downloads, wondering if listeners are sneaking in episodes between events or saving their favorite shows for a post-Olympic binge. The duo also dives into the latest Libsyn report on CPM rates, discussing the stability of summertime advertising rates and the growing confidence in the power of podcast audiences.

    They turn to the fate of "The Headlines," a companion podcast to the popular "The Daily" from The New York Times, as the show breaks free from the gated confines of the New York Times audio app. The hosts also share their experiences with various podcast apps, from Andy's daring venture into Apple Podcasts to Pete's love for Pocket Casts' latest update, which allows playback at a mind-numbing 5X speed. Plus, they talk through some important changes to Marco Arment’s app, Overcast, on it’s ten-year anniversary, and how it serves as a best-in-class model for others to follow that balances user privacy and a banging good audio engine.
