We're discussing a powerful shift in podcast discovery: trusted recommendations from real people instead of algorithms. With Pocket Casts now surfacing creator-curated suggestions, listeners have a new way to uncover shows they’ll actually love. We share how this works behind the scenes and why podcaster-driven discovery offers something smarter and more authentic than charts and rankings ever could.

We also highlight a creative summer listening challenge for kids, reflect on Apple’s unexpected role in preserving open podcasting over the last 20 years, and share updates on remote recording reliability.
