Latest news
- Feb 27: Oxford Road has launched the Independent Creator Awards Show, built to honor independent podcasters and creators. Jurors include Ashley Flowers, Hernan Lopez, and our editor James Cridland; Libsyn is the founding sponsor. The awards take place at SXSW on Mar 15.
- Dec 18, 2025: Why would anyone knowingly buy ads on a platform that works up to 25% worse? New research today from Oxford Road suggests that, in spite of the hype around YouTube, ads on YouTube shows are less effective than on audio-only podcasts. The data is based on more than a thousand campaigns - and shows that video comes at a heavy cost to advertisers, who might be better buying audio instead.
- Nov 27, 2025: The Media Roundtable this week includes our Editor, James Cridland, looking at recent news in podcasting from the view of the world's largest podcast advertising agency, Oxford Road.
- Nov 21, 2025: Bill Burr performs on stage, but also performs best for advertisers on his podcast - so says the ORBIT Rankings from Oxford Road, focusing this month on the top 15 performing comedy podcasts that deliver the best results for the advertisers who used them. Burr’s Monday Morning Podcast is at #1, NPR’s perennial favourite Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me is at #10. “There are plenty of ways to turn the funny into money,” says the report.
- Oct 30, 2025: Podcasting has a “shocking $1bn growth problem”, according to podcast ad agency Oxford Road in a new report. It’s, again, a concern about measurement - 50% of ad buyers citing limitations in performance data as the main constraint on spend. However, reaching consensus on the definition of a "podcast” is also crucial, the report argues - it’ll help solve budget, management and attribution confusion across audio, video, influencer, and YouTube teams.
