Edison Research releases the Top 50 Podcasts in the U.S. based on reach for Q1 2024 among weekly podcast listeners age 13 . The list ranks podcasts based on total audience reach from Edison Podcast Metrics. Remaining in the Top 3 from Q4 2023 into Q1 2024 are The Joe Rogan Experience, Crime Junkie and The Daily. In the fourth quarter of 2023, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce made an impressive leap into the Top 10. This quarter, the show rose even further, ranking fourth overall.

In The Top 50 for the first time: Some exciting newcomers make their debut in the Top 50. Debuting at #11, Club Shay Shay gained traction with a viral episode featuring Monique and Katt Williams, even earning a parody on Saturday Night Live. Nightcap, co-hosted by Club Shay Shay's Shannon Sharpe, debuted at #46. The Tucker Carlson Podcast, which launched in early December 2023 at the same time as Carlson's own streaming network, debuted at #24.

The Basement Yard, a sensation on TikTok, secured the #40 spot, while Dumb Blonde came in at #45. Additionally, The Broski Report with Brittany Broski, launched in May 2023, has steadily risen to #48 and was featured in Edison's Top Five Podcasts Launched in the U.S. in 2023.

Out of The Top 50: The Bill Simmons Podcast, H3 Podcast, Dark History and the WTF with Marc Maron Podcast bid farewell to the Top 50 this quarter.

The podcast show ranker is derived from data collected continuously during the first quarter of 2024, interviewing 5,300 weekly podcast consumers ages 13 and older in the U.S. Participants indicate which podcasts they listened to in the past week along with a variety of demographic, psychographic, and purchase-behavior information. This ranker measures reach as a percentage of the weekly podcast listening audience.
