How many active podcasts are there? 

 

There is a lot of data out there for podcasting, and in this episode, I do my best to cram the interesting points into a short and sweet episode. 

 

Now that is quite an episode for me to want to make, especially given my biases in podcasting, but I save my predictions and own opinions for the end of the episode. If you really want to know what this podcast producer thinks, you'll have to listen through to the end. 

 

In this episode we will cover: 

+Data across podcasting as an industry 

+Growth projections for 2023 and beyond 

+My predictions and opinions regarding the data
