Podtrac's Top 10 Podcast Publishers rankings for August, 2019 are now available. All Top 10 publishers saw increases in U.S. Unique Monthly Audience in August with biggest increases coming from iHeartRadio (26%) on the strength of new episodes of "Ron Burgundy" and other new shows and ESPN (23%) capitalizing on the football season and new content for "30 For 30." The Average U.S. Unique Monthly Audience across the Top 10 publishers was up 17% in August over July and up 75% from August, 2018.

As of April 2019, Global Downloads and Streams reflect updates to Podtrac's measurement algorithm and are not directly comparable to months prior to April. Unique Monthly Audience numbers were not impacted by this update. Podtrac's podcast measurement system is now certified compliant by the IAB Tech Lab with the IAB Podcast Measurement Technical Guidelines Version 2.0.
