“Yes, there’s a warning that podcast listeners want to get away from ads, and they’re starting to recognize ads on podcasts… [but] people still trust podcast advertisements more than they do radio or TV ads.” 

Podcast ads are special because the listeners trust to host like they trust their best friend. But is it possible to have too much of a good thing?

In this episode, Heather and Gabriel discuss: 

  • How to decode your podcast data.
