Latest news
- Sep 3:
Thank you to Libsyn’s Stephen Pickens who has become our latest personal supporter. Personal supporters like Stephen pay for Podnews so everyone can get access to our coverage: we’re massively grateful to him. We asked “should we mention Libsyn, or something personal, when we say thank you” and he said “feel free to mention Libsyn and something personal”, so he’s EVP of sales at Libsyn Ads, and, um, he has very nice eyes. You can join Stephen and become a supporter too.
- Sep 2: Livewire has published its graphs and data for the industry for August. There are no major changes for “podcast hosts by episode share”, though Libsyn has hit a low of 3% for the first time. For tracking services, Podtrac now measures a record 14.3% of all new episodes.
- Aug 28: The Tosh Show has officially signed a two-year deal with Libsyn, moving from iHeart. Daniel Tosh made a big announcement on his show - suggesting that Libsyn wanted "no guests" and "a new host", before wondering whether he'd pronounced Libsyn correctly. He did!
- Aug 18: Libsyn has launched “PodRoll with Libsyn”, a new discovery and monetisation tool that enables dynamic feed drops directly within the Libsyn platform. Promoted episodes appear in the second most recent episode slot of podcast feeds, labeled “You Might Also Like,” and include the artwork and direct links for the promoted show.
- Aug 14: Libsyn has announced it has now paid over $100mn in creator payouts. Year-on-year, the company paid-out 40% more revenue between Jan-Jul 2025. Senior members of the team will be at Podcast Movement next week.
