- Compared to the general U.S. population, podcast listeners tend to have a higher household income (121 index for HHI $100K+), be more educated (131 index for College Graduate+) and be more diverse (115 index for Hispanic ethnicity, 109 index African American);
- The most downloaded podcast in 2022 was NPR News Now (NPR) and the number one top new show was Rachel Maddow Presents: Ultra (NBCUniversal News Group).
