(The below is from Cohost AI) Explore the ever-shifting tides of podcasting with us as we unpack the big questions that are reshaping the industry. Joe Rogan's YouTube splash and the nuanced debate around podcast players like Podverse are just the tip of the iceberg. We're dissecting download metrics, questioning their relevance, and contemplating the impact on podcasters everywhere. The landscape is vibrating with change, and we're here to weigh in on Libsyn's dance with the Podcasting 2.0 movement, while celebrating the web's 35th anniversary with Evan Prodromou, whose thoughts on the Fediverse provide a glimpse into a connected future. Dive headfirst into the complexities of podcast monetization and the tools carving the path forward, as we scrutinize listener preferences and their influence on the podcast ecosystem. From YouTube Music's silence-trimming feature to the Sesame case study, the episode unspools a narrative rich with innovation. We also shine a spotlight on Gretchen Smith, who illuminates the crossroads of endorsement advertising and produced audio, introducing us to ARM Pro Audience—a concept that's set to revolutionize podcast advertising.<a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1538779/support">Support the show</a>Connect With Us: <ul> <li>Email: <a href="mailto:weekly@podnews.net">weekly@podnews.net</a> </li> <li>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/jamescridland">@jamescridland</a> / <a href="https://twitter.com/Podnews">@podnews</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/samsethi">@samsethi</a> / <a href="https://twitter.com/JoinPodFans">@joinpodfans</a> </li> <li>Lightning/NOSTR: <a href="https://emojipedia.org/high-voltage/">⚡</a><a href="https://getalby.com/p/james">james@crid.land</a> and <a href="https://emojipedia.org/high-voltage/">⚡</a><a href="https://getalby.com/p/sam">sam@getalby.com</a> </li> <li>Mastodon: <a href="https://podcastindex.social/@james@bne.social">@james@bne.social</a> and <a href="https://podcastindex.social/@samsethi">@samsethi@podcastindex.social</a> </li> <li>Support us: <a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1538779/support">www.buzzsprout.com/1538779/support</a> </li> <li>Get Podnews: <a href="https://podnews.net">podnews.net</a> </li> </ul>
