It's our Libsyn 20th Birthday episode extravaganza! We're diving into a mini podcast history journey, packed with your incredible listener voices. We'll also rewind to podcasts' role in the Election (heads up: this drops November 5th morning, so election results are TBD!)
Big media moves alert: Veritone One and Oxford Road have joined forces, creating the podcast ad world's newest powerhouse. Plus, we're geeking out over Apple's latest hardware drops and breaking down Podtrac's fresh metrics announcement.
