  • Kanye West has said that he’s “spoken with Joe Rogan and a podcast is coming soon”. The musician had been complaining that the media didn’t want a serious interview about mental health issues. While The Joe Rogan Experience is arguably already big enough, this event has the capability to get this podcast, and podcasting, into showbiz news reporting across the world.

  • The BBC has “used a loophole” to refuse to tell licence fee payers how much it’s spent on BBC Sounds, its UK-only radio, music and podcast app, says The Times.

Among the predictions: “an increase in the number of fiction podcasts produced by large companies and alternate production houses”, and “new tools and built-in functionality that will make supporting creators a much easier process”.

  • Podbean have published their top podcasts of 2018 according to listens in their own app. The company has also upgraded its statistics platform, and has posted a set of screenshots of the new functionality.
