ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week in the business of podcasting:
- Sounds Profitable, Coleman Insights, and Locked On are hosting a webinar on November 5 at 2pm ET, “The Power of Community: Why Podcasts Matter.” It presents new research among 2,000 Americans on how podcasts build connections with listeners.
- Tom Webster shares survey findings from 5,473 U.S. adults on whether audiences would watch an AI-generated show. Among people who lost a favorite show, 45% would at least somewhat likely watch a new AI season, 41% would not, and views on AI hosts predicted the answer best.
- The Small Business Administration now classifies creator-led businesses, podcasters included, under NAICS 5121. That could make it easier for creators to access microloans up to $50,000 and 7(a) loans up to $5 million.
- Beehiiv now offers dynamically inserted podcast ads. Publishers can open their inventory, including back catalog episodes, to programmatic buyers alongside host-read ads, and keep 50% to 60% of programmatic revenue.
- Tenderfoot TV turned a Radio Rental story into a stop-motion LEGO-style short film on YouTube. Apple Podcasts launched “The Greatest Stories Never Seen,” four animated videos built from podcast audio.
