well by numbers I meant numbers on the chart. They used to be the #1 pod across the spotify platform. Now they are usually in the top 30
what number in the top 30?
Michelle Obama’s podcast is #1 right now, joe pod is #16 and bill simmons podcast is #50. They all dropped a podcast yesterday so comparisons are equal. These stats are for USA
damn my niggas gettin put down by Michelle Obama and every true crime podcast on the planet
u hate to see it
ads ruined the internet b. I know it's "needed" but damn especially the youtube experience is ruined for me. especially with double ads and even f***ing ads at end of videos.
Yeah I mean, I just think about how TV often had/has longer commercial breaks than the ads we have to watch on any streaming tbh
Also I got adblocker, but if you're watching it on like a tv or console or something i dont know if u can skip the ads

Bill simmons owns the ringer tho. so his is different
does anyone who frequently listens to budden's podcast even listen/watch Joe Rogen experience? I very rarely check for it
The guest would have to be like... really good.
If I really like the guest, I can tolerate JR.
I've enjoyed his pod in the past but I just ended up liking less and less because he enables certain people I strongly dislike so...
what number in the top 30?
They 16 today. Yesterday they were 34
the joe rogan fanbase will pay off, michelle not so much.
joe made a great point in that giving celebrities and notable people who aren’t podcasters the crazy bag then expecting them to grow and gain listeners and stay consistently good when they have no idea how to do it is a bad investment and will prove itself to be bad.
it’s funny nobody mentioned the irony of him being on the other side of the situation when total slaughter happened.
but one of the most important things to making a good podcast is years of consistency to understand how to find that rhythm and keep it interesting. this is my second favorite podcast ever (and i’m a long time fan of pods back to earlier in the past decade) and it was not good in the beginning at all. it took them finding the right groove. spotify throwing money around is looking at skin tone and prior deaks and a***ytics to make decisions but they’re missing the context, and that’s where the importance lies.
I think if Michelle plays her cards right she could have a successful podcast, I think she might bring a certain audience that isn't necessarily into politics at large, because she's said she really doesn't like it, but just talking about things that are going on.
She's nice to listen to and def can evoke some feeling, its just yeah will she make it through this initial starting period, since she's not inherently a podcaster
They will probably do like Flagrant2. They will release 1 free podcast every week and 1 podcast on Patreon.
They will start doing ads, maybe take interviews for money.
in true Joe Budden fashion
But nah I do think a fuss need 2 be made about the weird way spotify is doing s***
ads ruined the internet b. I know it's "needed" but damn especially the youtube experience is ruined for me. especially with double ads and even f***ing ads at end of videos.
Just use Adblock and ublock on chrome and you’ll never see ads again
those responses got me like

I do wonder how much was the new deal, He said its the most money he's ever been offered in his career but that isn't saying much lol
Damn they really said joe ain't s***
I do wonder how much was the new deal, He said its the most money he's ever been offered in his career but that isn't saying much lol
I mean yeah but at the same time he was talking about how he was getting millions from Pull Up season, mils from revolt, all that
Well yeah thats why spotify doesnt need them anymore lol
It’s numbers have gone down?
I mean yeah but at the same time he was talking about how he was getting millions from Pull Up season, mils from revolt, all that
wasn't 100mil thats for sure
Btw I don’t see how what sport is doing with podcast be effective if you don’t have to pay to listen to them. I only ever use Spotify for the pod and nothing else. I feel like the exclusive podcasts are going to have to behind a paywall eventually.
Michelle Obama’s podcast is #1 right now, joe pod is #16 and bill simmons podcast is #50. They all dropped a podcast yesterday so comparisons are equal. These stats are for USA
I’d be surprised if the Obama podcast sustains a large listenership over the course of a year
