Important Message From PodVader

What Makes a Good Podcast Media Host?: https://joelsharpton.com/blog/what-makes-a-good-podcast-media-host (https://joelsharpton.com/blog/what-makes-a-good-podcast-media-host) The 5 Stages of the Podcast Listener Journey. Interesting: http://pivotsix.com/blog/podcast-customer-journey (http://pivotsix.com/blog/podcast-customer-journey) Hernan Lopez speaks on The New Media Show. - https://newmediashow.com/2020/02/28/podcast-academy-discussion-with-hernan-lopez-277/ (https://newmediashow.com/2020/02/28/podcast-academy-discussion-with-hernan-lopez-277/) Around 7min mark, says he wants the Podcast Academy to celebrate that “independent” and be included in their board. And yet, there is no true independent on their Board of Governors. 12:35ish - This is not a trade association. Again, as reflected by their Board of Governors. We want to celebrate quality as a group of professionals. Diversity is key here. Be representative of the entire industry. 14ish - Won’t duplicate things that already exist like meetups. Guide people to Gimlet Academy podcasts or Jesse Thorn’s show. 17ish - Be representative of the industry unlike other organizations that got it wrong. So the Board of Governors - more than half will be women. 21ish - There will be awards for true “one person shows” but they will also be eligible for the open categories (and the dream is for what happened with Parasite) 25ish - 6 open seats left but 3 have already been reached out to. The goal is to have 9 people who work for companies and 8 that are indie. But their definition of indie is someone who literally doesn’t work for any big company currently. 29ish - Open to a poll for the best indies to be on the board. But he says it will be hard to find someone that ticks all the boxes. 34ish - Hernan admits that without the criticism that arose, he’s not sure he would have considered putting as much representation of indie podcasters as there will be now. 53 - The first awards, for simplicity, has to be timed around an industry event to have enough people there (this is clearly a nod to Podcast Movement - but it’s not determined yet) Apple podcast data update - Data courtesy of the My Podcast Reviews service, by Daniel J.

Jay and Joel are both life-long Star Wars fans, so they took the opportunity to indulge themselves with this bonus episode. A spoiler-filled discussion of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the final film in the Skywalker Saga. The boys also discuss just what THAT means for Star Wars, and what they expect and hope for next. Beware, the boys do discuss some elements of season one of The Mandalorian as well, so if you’ve yet to watch that be forewarned.

However, when the biggest names say things, you have to take notice...like this:“Monetization opportunities for podcasters will continue to broaden in 2020, particularly for smaller podcasters in the ecosystem who don’t necessarily monetize today. It’s possible that the $863.4M projection for podcast advertising revenue in the US from IAB and PwC (https://www.iab.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Full-Year-2018-IAB-Podcast-Ad-Rev-Study_5.29.19_vFinal.pdf) will appear conservative in hindsight.” — Zack Reneau-Wedeen (https://twitter.com/zackrw) , Founder and Head of Product, Google Podcasts“Google will elbow its way into audio advertising. Buoyed by what they’ve learned from audio news delivered via Assistant, Google will start to make its way into this space. ” — Max Willens (https://twitter.com/maxwillens) , reporter, Digiday“Some smart antitrust lawyer in the US, Canada, or EU will start to look at whether market power is being abused in the podcast industry.” — Lindsay Bowen (https://twitter.com/lindsaytwofour) , VP of Podcasts and Entertainment Content Partnerships, PandoraPacific Content’s take If companies with massive reach and powerful ad-targeting platforms like Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, or Twitter begin seriously entering the audio space, it will be the catalyst for true hockey stick growth of new listeners, major advertising revenue growth for the industry, and huge new opportunities to capture time and attention by these platforms. https://rainnews.com/steve-pratt-20-podcast-predictions-for-2020-from-top-industry-leaders/ (https://rainnews.com/steve-pratt-20-podcast-predictions-for-2020-from-top-industry-leaders/) Apple Podcasts now on Amazon Echo. https://sixcolors.com/link/2019/12/apple-podcasts-now-available-on-the-amazon-echo/ (https://sixcolors.com/link/2019/12/apple-podcasts-now-available-on-the-amazon-echo/) Much more detail on Podcasts & Alexa here: http://www.insideradio.com/podcastnewsdaily/podcast-listening-arrives-on-alexa/article_62a173c4-202b-11ea-9fa1-9fcf5251c8fc.html (http://www.insideradio.com/podcastnewsdaily/podcast-listening-arrives-on-alexa/article_62a173c4-202b-11ea-9fa1-9fcf5251c8fc.html) Support this podcast

How to Make a Great Podcast and Predicting 2020- AL446

I don’t understand why articles like this get pushed out by the Podcast press as “new ideas”. Dynamic ad insertion has been around for YEARS now. Just because this guy at Spotify just discovered it, doesn’t mean other companies haven’t been doing this for years.  AND if you’re looking for the answer as to why independents are so fearful of bigger media companies coming in - it’s because of this vertical integration model where one company controls the creation, the hosting, the distribution and the monetization. How will the independent fit into that vertical if it doesn’t benefit the one company??? https://medium.com/301re/midroll-and-omny-finally-converge-f48c33370566 (https://medium.com/301re/midroll-and-omny-finally-converge-f48c33370566) New player to the game: Facebook?: “Audio services also seem ripe for disruption, the people said. The wealth of information that Facebook has on users from its News Feed could easily provide a personalized listening experience, they suggested.” https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/04/technology/facebook-npe-team.html?auth=login-facebook&login=facebook (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/04/technology/facebook-npe-team.html?auth=login-facebook&login=facebook) Is Google really focused on what is going to help podcasters find more audience?
