Pod Notícias 007 – AE Report reúne dados sobre podcasts de entrevista

Olá, eu sou Leo Lopes e este é o POD NOTÍCIAS, a sua dose semanal de informação sobre o mercado de podcasts no Brasil e no mundo! Hoje é segunda-feira, dia 18 de março de 2024 e esta é a nossa sétima edição! 1 - Na última semana, foi divulgado pelas empresas Rephonic e PodMatch o último AE Report, um relatório mensal sobre podcasts de entrevista. Os dados desse mês de março apontam que os podcasts de entrevista não estão tendo um crescimento expressivo, mas por outro lado, estão com números estáveis. Além disso, segundo a definição da pesquisa, só 13% de todos os podcasts desse tipo, são considerados podcasts "ativos e estabelecidos". Aqui vale a gente definir certinho o que é um podcast ativo e estabelecido segundo eles: é um podcast baseado em entrevistas com pelo menos 100 episódios publicados, cujo último episódio tenha sido postado a 10 dias ou menos, e que seja apresentado por alguém que não é uma celebridade - e nem parte de uma grande rede de mídia. Isso significa que, embora o número total de podcasts tenha aumentado em cerca de 20 mil entre fevereiro e março de 2024, o aumento de podcasts ativos foi de apenas 13 mil - já que vários podcasts deixaram de ser ativos nesse meio-tempo. Outro dado que o relatório apontou, foi que apenas 3,7% dos podcasters conseguem produzir mais de 300 episódios. A grande maioria dos programas acaba sendo encerrado depois do primeiro episódio. Link 2 - Um outro relatório que saiu recentemente, foi o Podcast Ranker da Triton Digital, com os números de fevereiro de 2024. A Triton avalia várias categorias do ecossistema do áudio mundial, e uma das mais importantes é a da Rede Que Mais Gerou Lucro com Áudio. O primeiro lugar do último mês ficou com a SiriusXM, que sempre tá ali, flutuando entre o primeiro e o terceiro lugar. A segunda empresa do pódio foi a NPR, que veio seguida de perto pela Wondery. A pesquisa também deu destaque para os podcasts que lideram em downloads e número de ouvintes. Nos Estados Unidos, os maiores destaques foram os programas News Now da NPR e o Crime Junkie, enquanto aqui na América latina, alguns dos programas mais baixados e ouvidos foram O Assunto do G1 (brasileiro), o Panda Show Sin Censura (mexicano) e o Modus Operandi (brasileiro). Todo mês, o relatório Ranker coloca uma grande ênfase na importância que os dados têm para profissionais de marketing e criadores de conteúdo, e o exemplo prático dessa vez, foi o caso do podcast que foi deletado pelo Spotify. Link 3 - E que caso é esse? Bom, pra quem não está sabendo, uns 10 dias atrás o podcast "Evolving Prisons" da podcaster Kaigan Carrie foi removido do Spotify, depois que a empresa alegou que estavam acontecendo atividades suspeitas relacionadas à pagamentos na plataforma. E, como o feed RSS também desapareceu, o programam começou a ser removido de outras plataformas e diretórios. No entanto, a remoção do podcast foi um engano. O programa foi deletado do Spotify menos de 48 horas depois de ser indicado na categoria "Podcast Independente Excepcional" na premiação True Crime Awards. O Spotify fez uma revisão no dia seguinte do erro, mas aí a Kaigan já tinha perdido seguidores, assinantes pagos, estatísticas e toda a receita acumulada dos últimos 4 meses. Depois da cagada, o Spotify declarou que estava trabalhando pra reverter a situação. E embora eles tenham conseguido restaurar as estatísticas e reembolsar a renda perdida, a podcaster sofreu um grande prejuízo, principalmente pela perda de seguidores em outras plataformas. E o Spotify pode ter mandado e-mail pra todos os inscritos do Evolving Prisions, pedindo pra eles refazerem a assinatura, mas quantos deles vão mesmo fazer isso? 50%? 80%? Todos? Enfim. A Kaigan disse que perdeu completamente a confiança no Spotify e que vai buscar outro serviço de hospedagem pro seu podcast, com toda razão. Link AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 4 - Com o fim iminente do Google Podcasts, o YouTube Music continua aumentando o seu catálogo de novos recursos, e a adição dessa vez é do "Trim Silence", que elimina pausas em podcasts. O recurso não existia no YouTube Music antes da versão v6.43 já que o aplicativo foi feito pra ouvir música, mas como ele têm se adaptado às demandas dos ouvintes de podcast, o novo "aparador de vácuos" identifica e pula períodos de silêncio nos episódios de podcast, o que reduz o tempo total da reprodução do áudio. Por enquanto, a funcionalidade não tá disponível pra todos os usuários do YouTube Music, provavelmente porque os desenvolvedores estão esperando uma atualização adicional do servidor ou do próprio aplicativo. Vamos esperar. Link 5 - A revista online The Baptist Paper está incentivando os fiéis da Igreja Batista a criarem podcasts, destacando vários benefícios da nossa mídia. Segundo um informativo publicado pelo portal na semana passada, um podcast pode ser uma adição valiosa para as igrejas, porque oferece uma forma conveniente e íntima de comunicação com os fiéis. Além de se encaixarem na rotina diária dos ouvintes, os podcasts também permitem uma conexão pessoal genuína, inspiram os ouvintes, e se tornam uma ferramenta poderosa pra promover o crescimento espiritual. Outra vantagem que o Baptist Paper destacou, foi a facilidade de compartilhamento dos podcasts, o que (em tese) ajudaria a ampliar o alcance da instituição. É importante a gente ressaltar aqui que os podcasts religiosos são muito populares no Brasil. Nas paradas do Spotify, por exemplo, os podcasts "Café Com Deus Pai" e "Frei Gilson Podcast" estão sempre - SEMPRE! - incluídos no TOP 10 dos mais ouvidos. É interessante ver como o podcasting têm sido valorizado em todo tipo de comunidade. Link E MAIS: 6 - Uma podcaster independente ganhou um processo judicial de marca registrada contra outra criadora de conteúdo que estava usando o mesmo nome do seu podcast. O caso aconteceu na Australia. Canna Campbell, uma influencer de finanças que também é conhecida como SugarMamma, foi considerada culpada por violação de direitos autorais na última segunda-feira, dia 11 de março. Ela passou meses usando o termo "Financial Foreplay" em seu podcast, só que a marca Financial Foreplay® já estava registrada desde 2016 para a proprietária Rhondalynn Korolak, outra podcaster bem menos conhecida que a Canna. Segundo os autos do processo, a Canna Campbell tentou registrar o seu podcast com esse nome sem sucesso, porque afinal de contas ele já estava registrado pra Rhondalynn, mas mesmo com o pedido de reconhecimento negado, ela continuou usando o nome em iniciativas comerciais, palestras pagas e acordos publicitários com lucro ativo. A Rhondalynn afirmou que a Canna Campbell usou sua propriedade intelectual sem autorização, e criticou suas justificativas no tribunal. Com o desfecho, a influencer foi obrigada a pagar cerca de 75 mil dólares em custos legais depois de infringir a marca registrada. E agora são dois trabalhos: o de pagar o pato e de refazer toda a identidade do podcast. Podia ter sido evitado se ela tivesse sido honesta desde o começo. Link 7 - A Prefeitura de São Paulo inaugurou o terceiro estúdio público de podcast da cidade, chamado Sampa Cast. A iniciativa foi realizada em parceria com a Secretaria Municipal de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Trabalho e a Agência São Paulo de Desenvolvimento, no intuito de fortalecer a criação de conteúdo e incentivar o empreendedorismo na área da comunicação e do audiovisual. Mais de 700 pessoas já utilizaram os serviços dos estúdios públicos, o que se reflete em mais de 1.200 horas de conteúdo gravado. Um exemplo deles, é o "Compartilha Cast", criado pela Vivian Castanheda e a Priscila Berquó, que já gravaram mais de 90 episódios. Os estúdios estão localizados em Pinheiros, Heliópolis e Lapa, e operam de segunda a sexta-feira, das 9h15 às 17h30, com agendamento realizado todo mês, através do site da Ade Sampa. O link, como sempre, vai estar na descrição desse episódio. Link 8 - E pra quem é fã de podcast e de séries animadas, eu tenho uma boa notícia: a empresa Starburns Industries, que produziu Rick & Morty, vai adaptar o podcast de comédia "Hello From The Magic Tavern" pra uma série animada. A adaptação vai ser feita em parceria com a Play Hooky Productions, comandada pelo ator Sam Rockwell e o executivo Mark Berger. O podcast Hello from the Magic Tavern é um programa de storytelling, que segue os anfitriões enquanto eles entrevistam criaturas, magos e aventureiros na terra fantástica de "Foon". O apresentador principal do podcast é Arnie Niekamp, que criou o programa com uma mistura de narrativa, comédia improvisada e show do absurdo. Quem acompanha ele nessa jornada são seus co-apresentadores Chunt, o metamorfo, e Usidore, o mago. Essa não é a primeira vez que um podcast é transformado em animação, o exemplo mais famoso que a gente tem até agora é o The Midnight Gospel, que foi feito em cima do podcast The Duncan Trussell Family Hour, e ta aí pra não me deixar mentir. Até o momento, todos os envolvidos no projeto disseram que estão muito animados com a adaptação. Os criadores do podcast estão postando nas suas redes sociais que não vêem a hora de compartilhar sua visão com os fãs, e de contar as suas histórias em um novo formato. Link HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA: 9 - Depois de um hiato que foi anunciado como "o fim do podcast", o Foro de Teresina da revista piauí retornou nesta última sexta-feira, dia 15, com uma nova bancada. O Foro de Teresina tinha sido interrompido no final de outubro do ano passado, depois das saídas de Thais Bilenky e José Roberto de Toledo, que foram recebidas com revolta por parte do público. Na época, a revista decidiu encerrar o podcast, que estava em produção tinha cinco anos e meio. Agora, de volta ao setor, o programa é composto pelo jornalista Fernando de Barros e Silva, pela jornalista Ana Clara Costa e pelo cientista político Celso Rocha de Barros - que já tinha participado algumas vezes como convidado na estrutura antiga do podcast. Ele é, também, autor do livro "PT, uma história" e colunista da Folha de S.Paulo. Ana Clara Costa tem experiência na Veja, nO Globo e Revista Época. Além das mudanças na bancada, o podcast também teve alterações na trilha sonora e na identidade visual. A produção continua nas mãos da Rádio Novelo, com direção de Mari Faria e coordenação geral de Évelin Argenta. Link 10 - E na nossa Caixa de perguntas do Instagram na semana passada, a gente perguntou pra você, o nosso ouvinte, qual foi o último podcast que realmente te surpreendeu ou prendeu a sua atenção. Essa foi mais uma daquelas perguntas que trouxe várias respostas bem variadas, entre elas: o Pausa Pra Sentir do Thiago Queiroz, o 80 WATTS do Shi, o Dois Empregos do Caio e do Klaus, o Dentro da Minha Cabeça do Príncipe Vidane e, pra minha alegria, até o Acepipes e Birinaites foi mencionado. Vários outros programas também foram citados, mas por conta de um bug do Instagram que sumiu com o nosso story da caixinha, a gente perdeu umas 10 respostas dos ouvintes. Valeu pela eficiência, viu, Instagram? Só que não. Agora, deixando os perrengues de lado, nessa semana a gente quer saber outra coisa: há quanto tempo você ouve podcasts? A caixinha de perguntas vai ficar aberta nos stories do Instagram do Pod Notícias por 24 horas - se o Instagram não der outro bug -, então não deixe de acessar lá ainda hoje pra deixar a sua contribuição, e também não deixa de seguir a gente em @pod.noticias. Instagram do Pod Notícias SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 11 - Na segunda-feira passada foi lançado o podcast Sambas Contados, apresentado por ninguém mais, ninguém menos do que o cantor e compositor Emicida. O programa é uma parceria entre a Globo e o Laboratório Fantasma, e mergulha fundo na história do samba em uma série de 10 episódios lançados de segunda a sexta-feira, ao longo de duas semanas. No podcast, o Emicida não só explora a evolução do gênero musical, mas também reverencia os grandes nomes do samba, ao mesmo tempo que fala sobre a importância histórica e cultural do samba na sociedade brasileira. Todos os episódios lançados até agora tem um conteúdo muito bacana, que vale muito a pena ouvir, e que celebra uma parte muito importante da música brasileira. Os episódios tem entre 20-30 minutos, e o programa já está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de áudio. Link 12 - Também foi lançado na última semana o novo podcast da BBC Sounds, o "Miss Me?", apresentado por duas amigas bastante famosas: a cantora Lily Allen e a apresentadora de televisão Miquita Oliver. No primeiro episódio, a dupla falou sobre as diferenças entre cerimônias de premiação no Reino Unido e nos Estados Unidos, desavenças familiares, páginas da Wikipédia e até aquela foto da Kate Middleton que deixou a internet fervendo em teorias da conspiração na semana passada. O podcast está programado pra ir ao ar duas vezes por semana; nas segundas-feiras elas vão abrir participação da audiência sobre algum tema específico, e na quinta-feira elas vão só conversar sem filtro - daquele jeito que amigos de longa data fazem. Os ouvintes podem enviar as suas participações por e-mail. O Miss Me é publicado pela network da BBC, mas já está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de podcast - em inglês, que é o idioma das apresentadoras. Link RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL: 13 - E nessa semana, nossa recomendação nacional vai pro fantástico podcast Rádio Escafandro, apresentado pelo jornalista Tomás Chiaverini. O programa segue a linha de documentário, e em cada episódio faz uma investigação jornalística profunda sobre algum tema variado. Lá no Escafandro já foi falado sobre greenwashing, o vício que população brasileira desenvolveu em Zolpidem, a monogamia, uso de psicodélicos e muito mais. Tudo isso abordado com seriedade e irreverência - ao mesmo tempo. Os episódios tem mais ou menos 1 hora de duração, e são montados com entrevistas inéditas, gravações em campo e áudios de arquivo, além de, é claro, a narração do Tomás costurando tudo. O Rádio Escafandro vai ao ar quinzenalmente, às quartas-feiras, e está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de áudio. Então você já pode assinar o programa no seu agregador de podcast preferido e acompanhar de perto esses mergulhos profundos que buscam a verdade e os fatos.

FLASHBACK: Song Exploder host Hrishikesh Hirway on the rewards of facing the music

As a musician himself, Hrishikesh Hirway knows how much thought goes into a song. So, he created Song Exploder, the series where all kinds of musicians – from big names like Madonna to lesser known indie acts – take listeners through the making of their greatest hits, piece by piece. This week, Hrishikesh joins Podcast Playlist host Leah-Simone Bowen as guest curator. He's sharing what he's learned from the performers he's hosted on his show, and what's gained from looking beyond a song's hype or genre. Then, he'll take us through his favourite podcasts: the comedy talk show he listens to when he's hitting the gym, fictional stories that will crack you up and a series where interesting people read poetry. All that, and more, on this week's episode of Podcast Playlist. Featuring: Song Exploder: "Monica Martin is a singer and songwriter based in Los Angeles. Before that, she was based in Madison, Wisconsin, where she was part of the indie rock band Phox. She's been a featured guest vocalist on songs by James Blake and Vulfpeck. In this episode, Monica breaks down her song "Go Easy, Kid," along with the tracks's producer, Khushi. It's a pretty meta story, as she talks about making a song that's in part about how hard it can be to make a song. And more generally, how hard it can be to let go of things we get hung up on." Everything is Alive: "Atsuko is a set of bagpipes, and she's looking for some peace and quiet." Hello from the Magic Tavern: "The premise of the show is that the host, Arnie Niekamp, fell through a dimensional portal behind a Burger King, into the fantastical land of Foon. In this episode, a lovely fox gives Chunt a mysterious box with a voice inside." How Did This Get Made?: "Dom's never before mentioned brother, the return of Han, a car in space, and magnets. The HDTGM/Fast family is reunited as Adam Scott joins Paul, June, and Jason to discuss the ninth installment in the Fast & Furious franchise F9. So you know what that means…" Interesting People Reading Poetry: "In this episode, Grian Chatten reads "The Windhover" by Gerard Manley Hopkins. Chatten is the frontman of the Irish post-punk band Fontaines D.C., recently described by NME as "the new heroes of the rock resurrection." The members of the group met while attending music college in Dublin and initially bonded over a shared love for Irish literature. Their second album, A Hero's Death, has been nominated for a 2021 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album."

Saluton, estas mi Saluton, estas mi Tyson Saner welcoming you to Succotash, The Comedy Soundcast Soundcast...the soundcast that features clips from other soundcasts that have something to do with comedy. I swear to you. That is to say that all of the soundcasts featured in nearly every episode of Succotash, The Comedy Soundcast Soundcast will be comedy-related in some way. I cannot stress that enough.  Or maybe I can and/or have. It's hard to tell without feedback.  Did I mention there are clips? We've got clips from Ear Biscuits, Science Fiction Rating System, Am I An Asshole?, Comedy Pop-Up Podcast, The Kevin and Bean Show from KROQ, and Hello From The Magic Tavern!  We've also got a double Burst o' Durst from raging moderate Will Durst, another reading from TrumPoetry.com, and there may or may not be time for a Henderson's Pants ad...  Let's find out, shall we?  THE CLIPS  Science Fiction Rating System Join Sam, Alex & Chris as they rank every science fiction film EVER. Three films an episode are discussed and added to the ranking, until they run out of films. (See the current list at sciencefictionratingsystem.com!) From July of this year, they are into thier second year running celebrating Bug Week, this time with the help of some GIANT ANTS.  In a wide ranging episode we dissect the film itself, and also get into projection techniques, an in depth ant quiz, the wonder of a Victorian man in Hollywood and much, much more!  Ear BiscuitsJoin Rhett and Link, hosts of the popular daily YouTube show Good Mythical Morning and authors of the New York Times bestseller "Book of Mythicality" in a candid weekly conversation for your Internetainment. In a clip from the spisode entitled "When Is Fun Too Dangerous?", Rhett and Link sit down to discuss when fun stops being worth the risk, dangerous hobbies they use to partake in, and the time Rhett almost went down with the "SS Merle" on this week's Ear Biscuits. The Kevin & Bean Show on KROQ The soundcast of The Kevin & Bean Show is made up of bits and segments from The Kevin & Bean Show. In this episode, that includes not just guest Bert Kreischer but "What's Happening?", Afro Line, Bean Makes Us Guess, and Extreme Commuting. Are the remnants and roll-ends of terrestrial radio the stuff of soundcasts? Listen and decide for yourself. Am I An Asshole?Comedians @JackieViscusi & @RosieGu + a special guest dig deep w/their resident therapist to analyze their asshole tendencies. In the episode from back in the beginning of this year sub-titled "For Being A Straight White Male?" (You have to do the math yourself there, and connected the title of the show to the sub-title to get the full message, see?), Jackie, Rosie, and guest comedian Jono Zalay touch on Women's Marches. Black Lives Matter. Gay rights. Are straight white dudes just hanging out and waving their privileged dicks around or do they actually want to help? Their special guest & comedian Jono, and their therapist, Jen, try to work it all out. Hello From The Magic TavernQuick background: Arnie Niekamp fell through a dimensional portal behind a Burger King into the fantastical land of Foon. He's still getting a slight WiFi signal, so he uploads a weekly podcast from the tavern the Vermilion Minotaur where he interviews wizards, monsters and adventurers. It's a major discovery! In our clip from Helo from The Magic Tavern (consistently in the Top 100 comedy soundcasts on iTunes), from way back in 2015, Arnie and his pals Chunt and Usidore meet a new guest: A common, dirty traveler named Tom. (Arnie hopes to hear what life outside of Hogface is like from someone who has traveled across Foon.) Comedy Pop-Up Podcast Live from the CPU Studios in beautiful Los Angeles, this is the official soundcast of Comedy Pop-Up, normally hosted by comedian Ron G. Join them as they interview some of the top comics in the business and create another outlet for some of the best in the industry. Our clip is from Epi42 from just earlier THIS month, guest-hosted by Paul Antonio and featuring guests Brent Sullivan and Vinny Fasline. And there you have it. September is nearly over and Halloween is just around the corner. In fact if you would like a headstart on Halloween why not pick up one or more editions of "Combat Radio Halloween The Album" available from cdbaby? You can pick them up by going to store.cdbaby.com , typing "Combat Radio" into the search field and clicking on any of the album icons adorned with very distinct shades of black with yellow lettering.  If the image of the headless horseman holding aloft a flaming pumpkin to presumably hurl at some poor soul isn't enough of a tip-off that you're in the right place, the white skull peering from behind the red shield with the black cross that is Combat Radio's logo should be a dead giveaway...  If you'd like specifically to buy this year's edition...this year being 2018...you can go to https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/combatradio8. The funds generated by album sales go to benefit social services, homeless children and other causes that have been adopted by the central figure of Combat Radio and an old pal of Succotash, Ethan Dettenmaier. I would also recommend checking out a track called "The Haunted Tour" from the 3rd annual "Combat Radio Halloween The Album" because it's something yours truly put together with the assistance of my co-host from Anti Social Show, Hunter Block, and we're frankly pleased with the way it turned out. So until next time, I bid you a fond farewell and thank you for spending some of your time with us here at Succotash, The Comedy Soundcast Soundcast. I hope it was entertaining and informative, and I hope that if you did enjoy yourself here that you might find the time to tell others about this program so that it might assist them in their own personal "I'd like to listen to a comedy soundcast but I'm not sure where to start" journey.  That, after all, is the simplest way you could grant our most humble of requests that can be summed up in the four words: "Please, Pass The Succotash". - Tyson Saner

Arnie Niekamp wants you to watch television shows he likes, but he's apprehensive about blanket recommendations of inconsistent shows. Some of his favorite television is wrapped up in shows that have ups and downs (Fringe, Twin Peaks, X-Files...), and we all know how hard it is to get into a new show that starts slow AND how hard it is to turn one's back on an old favorite. We explore episodic TV vs. serial stories, how hard it is to make a good sitcom pilot (or hell, first season), and the merits of rebooting shows that have been off the air for ages. We also peel back how TV and Arnie's inability to give up on it has seeped into his work on Hello From the Magic Tavern thus far.
