Join James Cridland and Sam Sethi on this week's show.
We talk about Apple's proposed new subscription service and what it means for podcasters?
And has Spotify's foray into podcasting failed? Citi Research said "The only thing podcasting seems to have influenced is Spotify’s valuation.” They suggest that clients sell the stock.
We'll discuss whether we think they are right or premature.
Also, we ponder if Clubhouse needs better room moderation to prevent hate speech and misogyny?
