- For the first time, The Infinite Dial from Edison Research has reported that over 50% of Americans are consuming podcasts each month. The research, now in its 27th year, shows that podcasts are consumed by 55% of Americans aged 12+. The study has an enlarged survey size and now asks about “watching” podcasts as well as “listening”. (Podcasts grew whatever question was asked).
- The monthly splits show that video podcasts are still trailing audio podcasts, with 48% saying they’d listened to a podcast in the last month, with only 37% having watched one.
- The webinar presentation was co-presented by Edison Research VP Megan Lazovick, and Podnews Editor, James Cridland. You can watch it here, as well as download the report.
