The Podcast Top 5
Libsyn’s $112M Payout, Gen Z’s YouTube Shift & Taylor Swift’s Podcast Takeover
22 Sep 2025
On this episode of The Podcast Top 5, hosted by Emily Soule, we’re covering Libsyn’s massive milestone — over $112 million paid to creators since 2017, with new tools to help podcasters monetize from day one. We’ll dig into fresh data showing Gen Z’s podcast habits are driven by YouTube and social media, plus the wild ripple effect of Taylor Swift’s appearance on New Heights, which sent streams and views skyrocketing. Then, we’re looking at tough truths from The Podcast Study: Growth — 41% of listeners won’t give a show a second chance if the first episode flops. And this week’s featured pick? Diary of a CEO with Steven Bartlett, a powerful show that pulls back the curtain on the world’s most fascinating leaders.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
