Yesterday we covered Triton Digital’s Australian Podcast Ranker (HERE), and today we receive the U.S. ranker for perusal. This list ranks podcasts which use Triton’s download and user measurement services.
Top line: NPR News Now claims the #1 spot as usual, sorted by weekly average downloads. That program was published 840 times during the measurement period, giving it a meaningful advantage in the download sweepstakes. The closest high-volume rival in this 150-item list is The John Batchelor Show (Audioboom sales) which dropped 170 episodes.
Only three newcomers emerged onto this competitive ranking:
- #81: Fantasy Pros – Fantasy Football Podcast (iHeart Audience Network)
- #89: Hysterical (Wondery)
- #123: Noble (SiriusXM Podcast Network)
The ranker is arranged by podcast, naturally, but can also be re-sorted by sales networks. We did that, and received the top 20 of them. They are:
- iHeart Audience Network
- SiriusXM Podcast Network
- NPR
- Wondery
- Audioboom
- Audacy Podcast Network
- NBCUniversal News Group
- Cumulus Podcast Network
- Paramount
- Soundrise
- Salem Podcast Network
- American Public Media Group
- All Things Comedy
- Cloud10
- Beasley Media Group
- Urban One Podcast Network
- CBC / Radio-Canada
