  • The average age of podcast listeners (spoiler: it’s 34).
  • Why 2024 was dubbed 'The Podcast Election' and its impact on creators.
  • Why it’s NOT too late to jump into podcasting—and how marketers can still capitalize on the trend.

Podcasting isn’t just alive—it’s thriving. Tune in for laughs, insights, and actionable advice to help you decide if it’s time to join the conversation.
