NOTE: Muck Rack’s podcast listenership metrics come from a custom algorithm that harnesses a combination of metrics from Apple, Spotify, and numerous smaller podcast platforms, as well as listener reviews and social media data from X (Twitter), YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. The result is an estimate of true podcast listenership.
