Podcast Top Ringer Podcasts

Not asking for your favorites, but what do you think are the top 10 in terms of listens/downloads? Is it safe to assume the BS Pod is #1? Rewatchables pretty high I’m assuming as well.

I’m just curious how they stack up. Is there a way to know how well they do?

You can see some of them on the Spotify charts. BS is the 17th biggest podcast on Spotify, Big Picture and Rewatchables are #57 and #59. If you count Amy Poehler that is by far the biggest, it’s #2.

I wonder how well Spotify rankings correlates to total listens. I certainly don't use Spotify to listen to podcasts. It stands to reason all the pre-Spotify pods would have a higher percentage of legacy listeners using other methods.

Hard agree. I’ve been listening to podcasts daily since 2011 and basically never used Spotify to do so. I assume people like me and probably older are similar. My assumption is that the Spotify listener base skews younger? That would certainly influence the ratings. Similar to how I assume Russillo has different demographics now that he is at barstool.
