Podtrac Releases November Ranker Of Top 20 Podcast Publishers

November Ranker

PODTRAC has released its NOVEMBER 2018 ranking of the Top 20 podcast publishers.

The list remained almost intact from OCTOBER, with only one placement swap, BARSTOOL SPORTS passing THE DAILY WIRE for ninth place. Total global downloads were down 10% from OCTOBER, the first month-to-month decrease since JULY, but up on a year-to-year basis by 46%. Three on the list saw increases from OCTOBER, BARSTOOL, PRX, and WONDERY. The list also now indicates which publishers have "voluntarily undergone an intensive review of their implementation of the PODTRAC Measurement System," which include seven of the top 10, with PRX, THE NEW YORK TIMES, and THE DAILY WIRE the holdouts.

The publisher rankings, which, once again, only include shows opting in for PODTRAC's Podcast Measurement System for the full month (and missing some of the largest shows and publishers) and ranked by unique U.S. monthly audience:

1. NPR (last month: 1)
2. iHEARTRADIO (2)
3. THIS AMERICAN LIFE/SERIAL (3)
4. WONDERY (4)
5. RADIOTOPIA/PRX (5)
6. THE NEW YORK TIMES (6)
7. WNYC STUDIOS (7)
8. ESPN (8)
9. BARSTOOL SPORTS (10)
