Podnews Daily - podcast industry news

Sponsored by Riverside. <a class="l" style="font-weight:bold;color:#BC1515" href="https://podnews.net/class-click/3360/2026-03-11">Riverside</a> now offers Podcast Hosting.

<li><a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/libsyn-creator-payouts">Libsyn’s podcast ad revenue grew 48% last year, the company has announced;</a> downloads are up 17%, and the company served 4.5 billion ad impressions in 2025 - up 46%. The number of creators monetising on the platform has increased more than 2.5x. The company announced that the Libsyn Audience Network is now broadly available: a way for advertisers to buy across Libsyn shows.
<ul>
<li>Libsyn is making its SXSW debut next week at Podcast Movement Evolutions and the iHeartPodcasts Hotel; they’re also founding sponsor of Oxford Road’s Indie PaC Awards.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>In a major change in the UK, the <a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/elis-john-audioalways">Elis James and John Robins show will be the first podcast that is commercially available under a new BBC Audio Release policy</a>. The new commercial opportunities include the back catalogue of the popular show, which won Best Comedy Show in the British Podcast Awards last October. It’s made by Significant Productions, and will be monetised by Audio Always.
<ul>
<li>The <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/commissioning/radio/documents/audio-release-policy.pdf?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-11">new BBC policy</a> was announced in October last year. A significant amount of BBC radio output is made by independent programme makers. The new policy allows those “indies” to own the RSS feed for third-party platforms (like Apple or Spotify), and place ads into those podcasts. The shows will continue to be ad-free on BBC radio and within the BBC Sounds app. In return, the policy requires a minimum of 10% of revenue to the BBC, promotional trails to BBC Sounds in the podcast, and clear explanations “as may be supplied or directed by the BBC”. It’s a very limited trial: only twelve shows will get this treatment, and only two per supplier.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Audible announced “localised experiences” in a further 11 new countries. Listeners in Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Poland, Ireland, Singapore, South Africa, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Egypt will all have local-language recommendations and billing, and will be cross-promoted from their local Amazon sites. The company claims it has grown its number of members by 800% in the last ten years; and the company projects that number will double again in just three years. (Audible funds a number of exclusive podcasts).</li>

<li>Podcast hosting company <a href="https://podnews.net/uploads/podbean-dai-ads$1306x1822.webp">Podbean has abruptly pulled its dynamic ad insertion tool across the whole of Europe</a>. No notice was given; the affected countries imply that there is a concern with GDPR compliance. The company <a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/podbean-podads">launched PodAds</a> in 2019. “We rely on dynamic insertion,” one customer told us, “and without prior warning, this has a huge impact on us”. The company told Podnews that the decision was "based on a combination of evolving global privacy regulations and a shift in our internal product focus."
<ul>
<li>Podbean is also removing its Livestream product as of June.

Podbean suddenly switches off DAI

Sponsored by Riverside. <a class="l" style="font-weight:bold;color:#BC1515" href="https://podnews.net/class-click/3348/2026-03-09">Riverside</a> now offers Podcast Hosting. Record, edit, and publish to Spotify, Apple, YouTube, and more, all from the same platform. <a class="l" style="font-weight:bold;color:#BC1515" href="https://podnews.net/class-click/3348/2026-03-09">Host where you record.</a><ul>
<li>When should you say you use AI in your podcast? RSS.com’s <a href="https://shouldidisclose.ai/about.html?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-09">Alberto Betella has produced a new website called ’should I disclose’</a> to help creators know whether they should label their podcast episodes as AI-generated. The guidelines suggest disclosure is based on substance, rather than merely tools. It has an <a href="https://shouldidisclose.ai/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-09">interactive questionnaire</a> asking you six questions to help; and also links to platform guidelines.
<ul>
<li>When contacted by Podnews, Eric Nuzum from <a href="https://www.magnificentnoise.com/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-09">Magnificent Noise</a> said that the website is “asking all the right questions”. However, he told us: "All podcasts require two things from their creators: passion and curiosity. AI can imitate the effects of those things, but it cannot be passionate or creative. So if anyone chooses to do the activities that the site suggests requires disclosure, I’m having trouble imagining it will ever achieve any audience impact worth considering."</li>
<li>John McDermott from <a href="https://caloroga.com/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-09">Caloroga Shark Media</a>, which produces content using AI as part of the process, tells us that "If an AI voice reads a story well, and allows something to get produced, I think it is a plus. I’m happy to disclose anything - I just don’t want to be unnecessarily penalized for it."</li>
<li>"Podcasting has been a medium built on authenticity and connection,” <a href="https://www.amplifimedia.com/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-09">Amplifi Media</a>’s Steven Goldstein told us. Adding that the website is helpful, he said: "In my view, the issue isn’t whether AI is used. The issue is whether the audience is intentionally misled. Listener trust is foundational to the medium. Transparency matters."</li>
<li><a href="https://www.inceptionpoint.ai/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-09">Inception Point AI</a> was also contacted for comment, but the company had not responded by press time.</li>

<li>Apple Podcasts was launched as an app on iPhone in June 2012. It wasn’t the first podcast app - and there was one that was launched three years earlier: with some features that we take for granted today. That app was <a href="https://podnews.net/article/google-listen-history">Google Listen, the first podcast app experiment by Google.</a> In a new article today as part of our <a href="https://podnews.net/articles/history">history</a> collection, we unveil the v2 design that was never launched, its inevitable pivot to video, and the astonishing engagement figures that the app got - even if that didn’t save it from the Google graveyard.</li>

The show was conspicuously absent from the recent <a href="https://podnews.net/update/iheart-to-netflix#story1">iHeart/Netflix</a> deal. “We love Jay — we have enormous respect for him and what we’ve accomplished together, including both doubling his audience and his revenue, but as sometimes happens with professional relationships, we’re going in different directions,” the company said in an email to advertisers.</li>

Frequency tunes into Flightpath for realtime monetization

Sponsored by Riverside. Ready to grow your podcast beyond audio? One leading show expanded from audio to video with Riverside and saw 15% RSS growth. Scale without rebuilding your workflow. <a class="l" style="font-weight:bold;color:#BC1515" href="https://podnews.net/class-click/3334/2026-03-04">Start for free.</a><ul>
<li><a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/audible-standard-plan">Audible has a new, lower-priced, subscription offering for people who really like podcasts.</a> The $8.99 “standard” plan gives users unlimited access to Audible Originals, as well as nearly 200 shows previously available on Wondery+. You also get access to one audiobook a month.
<ul>
<li>This replaces Wondery+, which has been <a href="https://wondery.com/w-plus-update/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-04">announced to be closing</a> “in the coming months”. Not all of those shows are making it to Audible. If you are interested in the Audible standard plan, for the next week or so, you can get it for $5.99 a month for the first year by <a href="https://wondery.com/w-plus-update/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-03-04">going through the Wondery+ website</a>. Shh.</li>
<li>Amazon’s choice is a bit bewildering. For $11.99 a month, Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers get access to <a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/amazon-music-audible">one free audiobook</a> from Audible each month, but no Audible Originals podcasts. Or, Audible’s Premium Plus plan is $14.95 a month, which gives one credit a month for an audiobook (ie one audiobook a month, though these credits only expire after twelve months) but no music. And you can buy a different plan, still called Audible’s Premium Plus plan, for $22.95 a month which gives you two credits a month.</li>
<li>Spotify also offers audiobooks. For $9.99 a month, you get access to 15 hours of audiobooks “from our audiobooks subscriber catalog” (with ad-funded music and podcasts); and for $12.99 a month, you get the full premium music and podcasts and 15 hours of audiobooks.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/pme-sxsw-apple-astin-badgley">Apple Podcasts will be talking at Podcast Movement Evolutions at SXSW, it has been announced today.</a> The company will be spotlighting its new video podcast experience - it’s the first time that Apple Podcasts has officially spoken at a US podcast conference. The event has also confirmed actor Sean Astin, the President of SAG-AFTRA, for the Sunday keynote; and a live performance from Penn Badgley.</li>
<li>First look: <a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/podscribe-rankings-feb-26">The Podscribe Rankings were released for February.</a> Acast has climbed to the world’s second biggest podcast publisher in terms of audience reach, the data says, while BetterHelp remains the #1 podcast advertiser.</li>

Audacy connects creators to YouTube

Sponsored by CoHost. Is your podcast audience truly growing? Explore <a class="l" style="font-weight:bold;color:#BC1515" href="https://podnews.net/class-click/3272/2026-02-27">CoHost’s New Listener metric</a> that reveals how many people are discovering your podcast for the very first time.<ul>
<li>For the first time in history, <a href="https://www.edisonresearch.com/podcasts-lead-am-fm-in-spoken-word-listening-marking-a-first/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-02-27">podcasts are now bigger than spoken-word radio</a>, according to new data from Edison Research at SSRS. This time ten years ago, podcasting was more than seven times smaller than AM/FM radio, which was a dominant force in spoken-word listening. But, over the last decade in the US, the share of time spent using AM/FM radio to listen to spoken-word audio has almost halved - shifting to time spent with podcasts.
<ul>
<li>There will be more data about podcasting next month, with <a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/infinite-dial-26-details">the publication of The Infinite Dial® 2026</a>, with support from SiriusXM Media. The gold standard of research on podcast consumption, the new data will be unveiled by Megan Lazovick, VP of Edison Research at SSRS, in a free webinar on Mar 12. She’ll be joined by our Editor, James Cridland.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>A new report on ad spend from <a href="https://www.guideline.ai/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-02-27">Guideline</a> says that US digital audio ad revenue will increase +9.3% this year, to $2.9bn. Podcasts are expected to hit 35% of digital audio ad spend (suggesting podcast ad spend of just over $1bn). Figures are worked out differently to the IAB, which suggested podcasting was <a href="https://podnews.net/update/podcast-ad-revenue-2024#story1">$2.4bn in 2024</a>.
<ul>
<li>Guideline also reported that growth in digital audio ad spend is at the expense of TV budgets - $87mn was shifted out of TV into digital audio advertising in 2025 - and radio declined by $29.3mn. Digital audio advertising was still less than 5% of the total media mix in 2025.</li>

<li>Exclusive: <a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/podcast-movement-26-nyc">Podcast Movement in New York will be part of an ambitious, week-long event</a> in mid-September, Podnews can reveal today. The venue will be Terminal 5, an iconic venue in New York City’s Hell's Kitchen district. We’ve <a href="https://podnews.net/press-release/podcast-movement-26-nyc">all the details</a>.
<ul>
<li>The event will take place September 14-18, with two days of The Sounds Profitable Business Summit (Sep 14/15), a mid-week pause for the IAB Upfronts, and Podcast Movement (Sep 17/18). Parties and other social experiences are all planned, including a party on Sep 16.</li>
<li>"This isn’t a venue change. It’s a statement. Podcasting has gone from underestimated to unavoidable, and when the right crowd gets together, the energy is real,” said Bryan Barletta, President of Podcast Movement and founder of Sounds Profitable.</li>
<li>Opinion: It’s a new look for the popular event - away from a conference hotel with its swirly carpets, inconvenient fire alarms and captive dining options, and in a new venue with a new focus, right in the middle of a city where media, technology and creators rub shoulders every day. This is a welcome change, which injects new energy into Podcast Movement, and allows attendees of either event to make a New York weekend of things (and to stay where they want, thanks to New York’s transport options). And last year, that week was around 70ºF... and no snow.</li>
