Citing an Edison Research metrics, UK-headquartered Audioboom observes that it is the fifth biggest podcast publisher in the U.S.A.

“Our year in numbers not only reflects the size and scale of the platform that Audioboom has built, but is also testament to the hard work, creativity, and dedication of our partners,” says Stuart Last, Chief Executive Officer. “Podcasting is a wonderful and inspiring medium, and I believe 2024 will bring even more success for us all.” See more HERE.
