We discuss our plans for Podfest's 10-year anniversary and how we aim to bring a large group of Buzzsprout podcasters along. So, if you've been tuning into Buzzcast regularly, this is your chance to join us at the year's biggest podcasting event!
Have you ever wondered how to leverage social media to expand your podcast? We've got some answers for you. In our discussion, we introduce Social Octopus, the game-changer in creating social media clips for podcasts. We also dissect the rebranding of Podinbox to Fanlist and why fans are the real powerhouses in the podcasting world. Then, we dive into the top podcasts of the year according to Spotify and Apple, and the exciting Podroll feature that empowers users to recommend their favorite podcasts.
We steer the conversation to a more controversial aspect of podcasting - ad-skipping. We unpack the ethical and legal implications of ad-skipping on podcasts and how the Audia app, which allows users to skip ads automatically, might impact podcasters and advertisers. This raises the question: is ad-skipping fair game or a violation of content creators' rights?
