Stitcher, the leading company dedicated to listening to, producing and monetizing podcasts, today released the "Stitcher Podcasting Report," a first-of-its-kind look at the evolution and growth of podcasting over the past 10 years, including what Stitcher's COVID-19 listener data could mean for the industry's future growth.
The "Stitcher Podcasting Report" represents the industry's only analysis of in-app data, network content and listener demographics from Stitcher the top network for share of podcast listening in the U.S., as measured by Edison Research's Podcast Consumer Tracker. The report examines the factors that have driven the industry's growth and the trends shaping it today:
"Like Stitcher, podcast listening has been growing strong for over a decade now, and we wanted to take a moment and reflect on the diversity of tastes and consumption habits that have driven that growth," said Stitcher CEO Erik Diehn. "The data we found reinforce our belief that the unique, intimate appeal of podcasting makes its fans the most loyal and passionate of any medium."
As the industry continues to adapt to changes in consumer behavior during the coronavirus pandemic, the report includes an analysis of COVID-19-related listening patterns.
"The podcast industry has shown its resiliency and ability to be nimble as hosts made a swift transition from recording studios to home, keeping a steady cadence of new episodes," said Diehn. "And even as day-to-day life has been transformed, people continue to turn to trusted and beloved shows and hosts to be informed and uplifted."
The report also includes data from the Stitcher app and Stitcher's PodSurvey, the industry's largest ongoing survey of podcast listeners, unveiling the top shows and genres, listener demographics, regional distinctions and more.
Other key findings include:
Content: Today, top shows such as "This American Life" and "The Daily" continue to attract listeners and advertisers from the coasts to middle America. As the industry has evolved, more content has emerged for listeners of all ages, backgrounds and interests.
Listening Behavior: Listening hours are on the rise as users integrate podcasts into weekday routines. The biggest spike in listening hours started in 2017 as bigger publishers and celebrities from other media jumped on board. Nearly 60% of listening hours are driven by 10% of dedicated "power listeners."
The Stitcher Listener: The amount of listening time and type of content varies by state, but there is not a leading region. Stitcher listener data points to how listening habits and genre preferences differ by state.
The full report including all the industry and listener behavior data is now available here.
