00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:04.360
 From our free daily newsletter, the latest from podnews.net with

00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:05.440
 Magellan AI.

00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:11.620
 Building in public, the founders of PodSqueeze appeared on Jason

00:00:11.620 --> 00:00:13.820
 Cohen's Smart Bear Live

00:00:13.820 --> 00:00:17.720
 and on his YouTube channel alongside the founder of Kastos,

00:00:17.720 --> 00:00:18.780
 Craig Hewitt,

00:00:19.260 --> 00:00:22.300
 in a workshop discussing how the company's growth has plateaued

00:00:22.300 --> 00:00:24.740
 and what they might want to do to continue growing.

00:00:24.740 --> 00:00:29.460
 It's a helpful and honest view about producing tools for podcasting.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.520
 Here's a tap which has been turned back on.

00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:36.680
 On Monday, we covered the parent tap being wrongly kicked off

00:00:36.680 --> 00:00:37.320
 YouTube

00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:40.960
 and an automated review almost instantly being denied.

00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.240
 YouTube has now reinstated the channel, saying,

00:00:44.480 --> 00:00:47.510
 after taking another look, we can confirm that it is not in

00:00:47.510 --> 00:00:49.700
 violation of our terms of service.

00:00:50.100 --> 00:00:51.240
 Well, that's all OK then.

00:00:52.260 --> 00:00:55.350
 Threads is experimenting with a new interface to share podcast

00:00:55.350 --> 00:00:56.060
 episodes

00:00:56.060 --> 00:00:58.040
 using a word-by-word transcript.

00:00:58.540 --> 00:01:01.280
 It looks nice, and they appear to be tests that aren't yet

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:03.080
 available to most users, though.

00:01:04.060 --> 00:01:07.400
 Bloomberg's Ashley Carman has written a long piece about the unravelling

00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:08.340
 of podcaster

00:01:08.340 --> 00:01:10.900
 Ashley Flowers' true crime empire.

00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:13.900
 We're sharing a guest post to read it today.

00:01:14.380 --> 00:01:18.380
 30 of AudioChuck's 100 employees have left over the past year,

00:01:18.380 --> 00:01:19.100
 she reports.

00:01:19.100 --> 00:01:23.000
 Yet Crime Junkie is reaching a bigger audience than at any point

00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:24.760
 over its eight-year run.

00:01:25.500 --> 00:01:29.850
 On August the 13th, Beehive achieved certification with IAB

00:01:29.850 --> 00:01:32.900
 Podcast Measurement Guidelines version 2.2.

00:01:32.900 --> 00:01:36.560
 The company's head of podcasts, Ainsley Rosito, appeared on

00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:38.840
 Podcast Super Friends this week

00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:41.560
 to talk more about their push into podcasting.

00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:44.860
 And the company is sending two people to podcast movement,

00:01:45.260 --> 00:01:48.700
 Rosito and senior software engineer Jacob Wolfe.

00:01:49.160 --> 00:01:54.100
 Competitor Substack also achieved IAB certification two days ago.

00:01:54.900 --> 00:01:58.940

00:01:58.940 --> 00:02:00.520
 personal growth podcast.

00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:02.580
 It was previously with Gumball.

00:02:03.340 --> 00:02:07.730
 In People News, in London, Acast has hired Mark Bulling as VP of

00:02:07.730 --> 00:02:08.560
 Product,

00:02:08.940 --> 00:02:11.260
 joining from WPP Media's Choreograph.

00:02:11.820 --> 00:02:15.470
 And in the US, Riccardo Netto has been promoted to managing

00:02:15.470 --> 00:02:16.980
 director of US sales.

00:02:16.980 --> 00:02:19.460
 He joined the company in 2023.

00:02:30.340 --> 00:02:31.180
 legends.

00:02:32.060 --> 00:02:36.350
