PODCAST FACTS
Did You Know?

  • Edison Podcast Metrics reports that 79% of weekly podcast listeners in the U.S regularly tune into 'video podcasts', which are essentially viewed or listened to on video streaming platforms. Interestingly, their research also shows different ways these listeners engage with this content. For instance, 62% of them often have the video playing in the background while they listen - a more passive form of engagement.

  • On the other hand, an impressive 72% actively watch and listen to these podcasts simultaneously. This not only adds another dimension to their experience but also allows for a deeper connection with hosts. Furthermore, by incorporating visual elements creators can transform parts of their content into short clips ideal for social media sharing - enhancing both digital presence and audience reach.
