Everything to produce professional podcasts fast. The next version of Apple Podcasts will include “enhance dialog”, Apple announced at WWDC. But how does it sound, and what does it do? Here’s a little demo using the Podnews Daily podcast, which has music underneath it. Unlike other apps with similar features, this feature essentially removes all background noise (even music), as well as normalise voices with different volumes. The public beta is now available for you to try it out for yourself. The public beta also includes a new feature for Apple Music: “automix” tries to make songs flow together a little better, like radio stations do. Our Editor has published some examples of the mixes on his personal blog - most are nice, some are horrid. Acast released its Q2/25 financials (the full PDF is here). Sales grew by 27% to 606.7 SEK ($63.6mn); and for the first time, the US is now Acast’s largest market, with sales growing 70% in the region. However, the number of listens decreased further to 1,102mn, and the company’s operating loss has doubled to 66.3 SEK ($7mn), though part of this are one-off costs related to the change of CEO: the figures are the first under new CEO Greg Glenday. The company employs 445 people. Emily Villatte, the CFO and Deputy CEO, resigned two weeks after Glenday’s appointment; she’ll move to global games company Stillfront early next year. New keynote sessions have been announced for Podcast Movement Dallas - the award-winning Tom Webster; the excellent Aussie podcasters Toni & Ryan; and a keynote about podcast growth from Goalhanger executives.

Everything to produce professional podcasts fast. TIME has published its 100 Best Podcasts of All Time. Eliana Dockterman wrote about how she chose the list - “sorting out who can conduct an insightful interview or piece together a compelling monologue”. Good news for the UK: five of the choices are from there. However, missing from the list, suggests Barrett Media is, among others, Pod Save America, and a little-known podcaster called Joseph James Rogan. Pardon My Take from Barstool Sports wasn’t one of those chosen. They apparently, as a protest, linked to evidence that TIME hasn’t always got it right in the past. (To be fair, they were right, just not in a good way). Podcast listening continues to grow, says Edison Research’s Podcast Consumer 2025 study, and the report contains significant data about video podcasts. Over half of the US population (aged 12+) has now watched a video podcast; 37% have watched one in the last month. Since 2015, the total time spent with podcasts has grown by an astounding 355% to 773 million hours per week. Metricool has examined the social media strategies of the top podcasts. YouTube gets the most engagement rate; and successful podcasters don’t use many emojis. 🎤🚫😔 > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website: and get our free daily newsletter.Classifieds - your job or ad hereTurkish Airlines Series Podcast — A new travel & inspiration podcast launched by Turkish Airlines.

Everything to produce professional podcasts fast. After he leaked his earnings himself in June, it’s official - this year The Joe Budden Network has earnt more than $1mn/month on Patreon from podcasting, according to a (susbcription-needed) feature from The New York Times. The network has around 70,000 paying subscribers. Budden is the top earner on Patreon, who told us that Joe shared the level of his earnings “to make a broader point: it’s possible for creators to maintain control over their IP and audience, stay independent, and still build massive, sustainable businesses on Patreon”. The network also earns “several million” from advertising. You can support Podnews on Patreon. We don’t earn that much. How private are Apple Podcasts listening analytics? As you’d expect from Apple - very private. In a new blog post, Apple says it deliberately applies noise and minimum thresholds to protect individual user identities. What happens on iPhone stays on iPhone, as the poster said in 2019. Nielsen says that YouTube posted a new record of 12.8% of all TV usage in the US, partially driven by school-aged audiences. Netflix also benefited from this annual summer increase, reaching the #3 slot for the first time. The data is also affected by the lack of sports during June. > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website: and get our free daily newsletter.Classifieds - your job or ad hereUse your podcast to get clients (FREE Workshop) — This FREE 90 minute Podcasting Business School virtual workshop will teach you simple strategies to help you convert more of your podcast listeners into paying clients.

The Spanish public broadcaster RTVE is stifling open access by blocking podcasts from its national radio station on third-party apps. This move raises alarms about the future of RSS. Meanwhile, The New York Times explores the growing interest in video podcasts. Anecdotes reveal curious trends in audience behavior. The Telegraph highlights how podcasters are encroaching on TV territory, posing a challenge to traditional broadcasters. The evolving landscape of podcasting is filled with both restrictions and innovative opportunities.

Exciting keynote announcements are set for Podcast Movement 2025, featuring insights from industry leaders about future trends. A partnership between Mercury and the Student Radio Association aims to distribute diverse podcast content in the UK. Audioboom makes headlines with a significant acquisition, while new podcasts emerge focusing on women's sports and Hollywood history. Plus, there's buzz around a cutting-edge editing tool that promises to streamline the podcast creation process.

With exclusive data today from Edison Research, Podnews can reveal the massive - and growing - size of the US podcasting industry - and a suggestion for a new metric for podcasting to express its growth over the next twenty years. Metrics can demonstrate our size, or help us understand our revenue potential: this new metric, perhaps, helps us do both. Audioboom has acquired the UK podcast network Adelicious. The combination of the businesses will create the UK’s largest homegrown podcast network with 40mn unique listeners, and more than 125mn monthly downloads and views. Adelicious will continue as a brand. Apple Podcasts announced better, more granular listening reports within Apple Podcasts Connect. The reports are only available for channels that offer paid subscriptions, but now includes a unique count of listeners per channel for the first time. > > > Read more of today’s podcast industry news stories on the Podnews website: and get our free daily newsletter.Classifieds - your job or ad hereSchedule Time with John Wordock — Does your podcast need a tune-up?
