Big increase in podcast listening in Canada

Sponsored by SoundStack. Heading to Programmatic I/O and/or Advertising Week NY? Let’s talk fast, simple monetization to keep your podcast and streaming businesses growing.

• In Canada, monthly podcast listening has grown 19% year-on-year, and now 46% of all Canadians listen every month. That data is newly released from Signal Hill Insights, just in time for PodSummit YYC in Calgary, which kicks off tomorrow.
• In July, Podnews covered Spanish public broadcaster RTVE, who blocked downloads from some open RSS podcast apps in favour of its own proprietary one. We’re delighted to report that users of AntennaPod are now able to listen to the broadcaster’s podcasts. Our reporting resulted in the team reviewing the app’s access.
• Congratulations to Jenna Weiss-Berman, who is to be awarded a Gracies Leadership Award. The awards are taking place in November in New York City.
