- Jan 20:
use the same keywords your audience types into Apple Podcasts and Spotify, so your show actually appears in their search results.
- Jan 19: Assuming Apple Podcasts is responsible for 50% of those subscriptions, that suggests Apple earns between $1.5mn and $3mn per year from Goalhanger. Supporting Cast, who Goalhanger use for other platforms, charges 10% (perhaps earning $1mn from the other 50%).
- Jan 14: Apple Podcasts had its "best year yet" in 2025, achieving record listeners, plays and subscribers, said the company. 2025 was Apple Podcasts' twentieth year, launching automated chapters, timed links, and dialog enhancement tools. It was also the year that Apple Podcasts made its submission process easier, and spoke at a podcast event for what the company said was the first time ever. It also remained the #1 podcast app for consumption in the US.
- Jan 8: Apple Podcasts would, we'd suggest, have a significantly higher claim: the app is responsible for 37.4% of all podcast consumption, and unlike Spotify, Apple sets open standards used by the whole industry, and it runs the open, de-facto, podcast directory for most other apps via the iTunes API. Based on global revenue, we'd put its industry contribution, just in the last five years, at more than $25bn.
