It’s the very first episode of The Big Pitch with Jimmy Carr and our first guest is Phil Wang! And Phil’s subgenre is…This Place is Evil. We’re talking psychological torture, we’re talking gory death scenes, we’re talking Lorraine Kelly?! The Big Pitch with Jimmy Carr is a brand new comedy podcast where each week a different celebrity guest pitches an idea for a film based on one of the SUPER niche sub-genres on Netflix. From ‘Steamy Crime Movies from the 1970s’ to ‘Australian Dysfunctional Family Comedies Starring A Strong Female Lead’, our celebrity guests will pitch their wacky plot, their dream cast, the marketing stunts, and everything in between. By the end of every episode, Jimmy Carr, Comedian by night / “Netflix Executive” by day, will decide whether the pitch is greenlit or condemned to development hell! Listen on all podcast platforms and watch on the Netflix Is A Joke YouTube Channel . The Big Pitch is a co-production by Netflix and BBC Studios Audio. Jimmy Carr is an award-winning stand-up comedian and writer, touring his brand-new show JIMMY CARR: LAUGHS FUNNY throughout the USA from May to November this year, as well as across the UK and Europe, before hitting Australia and New Zealand in early 2026.

Sponsored by RedCircle . If your podcast was a band, it would sell out arenas (or clubs at least!). Let’s get you paid like it. Spotify launched enhanced podcast discovery tools to its app , including recommendations on the home screen “for users who love podcasts”. It’s unclear how the recommendations are chosen. The company has also added a threaded view to its proprietary comments, and a new “following” view within the app. Sports betting website FanDuel was the #1 podcast advertiser in April, says Magellan AI . Corporate advertising for Google makes it to #13, the highest spend increase last month.

Sponsored by RedCircle . Talking into a mic for free? That’s a choice. Getting paid for it? That’s a business. Acast has launched its first AI-powered tool (that’s Acast Intelligence to you): Smart Recommendations, an AI-powered podcast ad planner . The tool takes natural language to allow advertisers to turn a desire to reach, for example, “men living in capital cities in Australia interested in craft beer” into a curated set of podcasts to advertise in. In the UK, the BBC has announced a partnership with the Crossed Wires podcast festival in Sheffield , to run a weekend of free shows in early July. Free tickets will be available at the end of next week. We may have an end to Kast Media’s bankruptcy proceedings, which we’ve been covering for over a year . The company’s plan to emerge from bankruptcy was confirmed by a court yesterday . Meanwhile, Kast Media published its accounts for April 2025 as part of the bankruptcy proceedings. The company made $11,455.05 in advertising, and $3,748.63 from Apple Podcasts premium subscriptions. After paying CEO Colin Thomson’s salary and freelancers, the company lost $11,500 in the month. > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website : and get our free daily newsletter.

Podcast ad recall: totally balanced 3:42

Sponsored by RedCircle . More ad revenue without switching hosting providers. Get your free trial. Podcasts are highly unusual: podcast advertising is recalled just as much by female listeners as male listeners , according to a study released today by Sounds Profitable. That’s not the case in TV, radio, or even Reddit, where there is significant male bias in recall. “[Podcasting’s] gender parity in recall isn't just a fun statistical oddity,” says Tom Webster, “it's a window into something genuinely unique: a medium where your message is equally likely to break through regardless of which half of the population you're trying to reach.” The winners of the 2025 Quill Podcast Awards were announced. Podcast of the year went to Well, I laughed , “a podcast for listeners who find themselves in search of a good laugh and their next strange story to tell at parties.” Passes are now available for PodSummit YYC 2025 in Calgary AB, Canada this September. This year’s lineup of speakers is headlined by Jesse Lipscombe and our Editor James Cridland, with LIVE podcast shows from Sickboy (Jeremie Saunders, Brian Stever, and Taylor MacGillivary), and CBC’s Crime Story with Kathleen Goldhar. > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website : and get our free daily newsletter.

In a post on LinkedIn, The Podcast Standards Project says that it’s been discussing a better solution for supporting video using open RSS. The solution overcomes many of the issues highlighted by our Editor in a personal blog post last year ; it might even allow dynamically-inserted video advertising, too, and it can also provide better consumption data, while being significantly cheaper to serve than existing examples. Apple had charts for video podcasts back in May 2017, John Wordock reminds us: he has written his confessions of a podcast chart addict .

The New York Festivals Radio Award winners were announced for 2025. , which include podcasts as well as radio shows. Broadcaster of the year was CBC/Radio-Canada. The Lever’s investigative podcast Master Plan was awarded the prestigious National Press Club Award . Nick Quah chats with YouTube’s Tim Katz (“a vice-president who oversees partnerships across different sectors — news, civics, health, education, kids’ content — including, now, podcasts.”). Katz describes a podcast on the platform as “listenable content — so, content that’s video optional,” and says that “if you look at the top podcasts in the US, almost all of them are on YouTube”, although Podtrac told us in February that only half were . Podnews said last week that the new-look YouTube podcasts homepage in the US was editorially curated. It isn’t, we’re told; just a different algorithm. The biggest podcast sponsors are more likely to sponsor true crime podcasts , says Rephonic in new analysis. 35% of shows have sponsors (similar to 34% for shows in all genres). > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website : and get our free daily newsletter.

Apple Podcasts paints the town purple 3:22

11 days ago3:22

3:22

Sponsored by RedCircle . Don’t. Do not. Underdeliver on your ad read. Our best tips to avoid that. The team from Apple Podcasts spoke at The Podcast Show yesterday - the first ever time that Apple Podcasts has spoken at a podcasting event. The talk, by Jake Shapiro and Susie Warhurst, was well received by the audience, who learnt that 2024 was Apple Podcasts’ best year ever for listeners, hours, and premium podcast subscribers. The chimneys at the iconic Battersea Power Station, where Apple’s UK operations are based, turned Apple Podcasts purple in celebration of the podcast creator community this week. Apple unveiled some data from one of Goalhanger’s shows, The Rest is History . That show has 45,000 paying subscribers using Apple Podcasts, and it was revealed that 57% of them are on the annual plan, which is helpful for retention. Tony Pastor, the co-founder of Goalhanger, was quoted as saying “The key advantage of Apple Podcasts Subscriptions is how seamless the experience is for listeners.” Apple Podcasts also shared the strength of UK podcasting, with many UK shows also achieving top 10 chart positions around the world, like Wondery/Novel’s Kill List and Noiser’s Sherlock Holmes . Apple said that 88 of the top 100 UK shows are made in the UK. Apple Podcasts announced the latest additions to the Creators We Love program, which includes five of the UK’s most well-established podcasters. Selected by the Apple Podcasts editorial team, the five shows will be promoted both on and off the platform. Opinion: It’s nearly 20 years since podcasts first went into iTunes; and Apple has been a good steward of open podcasting since. Apple Podcasts has been criticised in the past for being overly secretive; but to see the Apple team being so open with creators at The Podcast Show was refreshing and well-reviewed by all - and reinforced that Apple, of all of the big podcast platforms, is podcasting’s friend. We hope to see more of this in future. > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website : and get our free daily newsletter.

The Podcast Show 2025 kicks off in London 3:42

Sponsored by RedCircle . We’re in London. At The Podcast Show. It’s going great. You should be here. Get the scoop. The Podcast Show in London is underway, with record numbers of attendees registered to attend. Christiane Amanpour and Emily Maitlis – two veteran female journalists – have been confirmed for a ‘Behind The Headlines’ session; and Apple Podcasts will deliver a session for the first time. Spotify’s share of downloads is down year-on-year in the UK, according to OP3 data. Our Editor, James Cridland, speaking this morning at The Podcast Show London, compared data from a typical week in April in 2024 and 2025 . “It may be that this is the growth of Spotify video, which won’t be seen by third-party analytics services like this,” he said. Apple Podcasts increased its share by 4.3%. The data also doesn’t show YouTube, Global Player or BBC Sounds. The Signal Awards released a new report about what podcasters can learn from the creator economy. Enter The Engagement Era: How Podcasters are Learning From The Creator Economy is available now, exploring how top podcasts are reconfiguring their businesses to become more responsive to their listeners. > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website : and get our free daily newsletter.

YouTube adds podcast chart, new podcast homepage 4:15

PSA: If you’re flying to London next week, you’ll need an ETA before you board. They’re $22 (£16). Each person must apply separately. Details from the UK Government here . YouTube has announced that it’s launched a podcasts chart. The top 100 is here - it’s weekly, updated every Wednesday. Unlike other podcast charts, the YouTube chart is ranked by watch-time. YouTube “generally” defines a podcast as a playlist designated as a “podcast” by the creator in the upload process. Bumper has discovered that the available data goes back to Mar 18, 2025 . Joe Rogan has been #1 every week. It’s a US chart only. The company is “expanding podcast charts to additional regions.” YouTube has also, quietly, updated the YouTube Podcasts homepage in the US to be editorially curated . It highlights podcasts as square podcast artwork, and editorially curates them into different rails (“Award-winning”, “Music minded”, “In conversation with”, “Gaming and sport”, etc). Viewers in other countries get the older, algorithmic page that contains 16:9 video thumbnails, including many things that aren’t really podcasts. Compare these two screenshots - YouTube Podcasts in the US , and YouTube Podcasts in Australia . This change appears to only be in place in the US. One of the concerns for our industry highlighted in the Podnews Report Card this year was the YouTube podcasts homepage, with comments that the company “needs to invest in editorial curation to be taken more seriously”. Spotify announced a change in the way they will display play-counts for podcasts. "To help celebrate growth, plays will be presented as incremental milestones instead of precise figures, beginning once an episode hits 50K plays. Creators will still see their precise numbers in their private dashboards." There's more detail in the Spotify for Creators blog . The actual definition of a play remains undocumented by Spotify - and by YouTube; but we do know that they are worked out very differently to Apple Podcasts plays. None of the statistics from Apple, Spotify's app, or YouTube are certified under the IAB Podcast Measurement Guidelines. > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website : and get our free daily newsletter.

Sponsored by RedCircle . Watch out, London! We’ll be at The Podcast Show. Will you? Book a meeting . In the UK, audio and radio industry awards The ARIAS announced the 2025 winners . The awards are mostly for radio stations; but gold winners included the podcast Dead River from Audio Always for Best Commercial Partnership; and the inaugural UK Audio Brand of the Year 2025 went to podcast company Goalhanger, which produces (among many others) The Rest is Politics with Alastair Campbell (pictured above) and Rory Stewart. Tony Pastor, the company’s co-founder, told us that the award “proves there’s still a huge appetite for long-form, intelligent content delivered in an entertaining way.” Online radio streamer AccuRadio is seeking Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection after failing to reach agreement with music royalty company SoundExchange. After almost twenty-five years, AccuRadio has paid over $13.5mn in royalties to Sound Exchange.. The popular audio show Twenty Thousand Hertz is coming to YouTube . Dallas Taylor writes: “This is not a video version of the podcast. It is its own thing fully designed for YouTube. The podcast will remain beautifully crafted and story-driven. The YouTube series will complement it by exploring sound in ways that have never been seen before.” > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website : and get our free daily newsletter.

There’ll also be a free webinar on May 29 . The study is made to be comparable with Infinite Dial data in other countries, including the US, Australia and New Zealand. Apple has unveiled new accessibility features coming later in the year. For podcasting, we gained transcripts in Mar 2024 , but live captions for other apps will be available with more languages, Live Listen will add captions on a connected Apple Watch, the Personal Voice voice cloning system becomes more natural and quicker to train; a new magnifier app makes it easier to see the screen; and accessibility labels will be visible in the Apple App Store. An interesting data point as part of some work by Westwood One - 85% of Americans commute to work, but ad buyers are not like the rest of us - the advertising industry only commutes into work 4.2 times a week, rather than the average American who commutes 4.7 times a week.
