Podcast ONE: 7 de agosto de 2026
In Episode 678 of the New Media Show, host and Podcast Hall of Famer Rob Greenlee welcomes Barry Kantz, CEO and CFO of Blubrry Podcasting, for a candid conversation about Blubrry's leadership transition, the legacy of (RIP) former CEO Todd Cochrane, independent podcasting, video, artificial intelligence, monetization, measurement, human support, and the changing podcast-hosting market. For more than 20 years, Blubrry and its parent company, RawVoice, have helped build and support the open podcast ecosystem. The sudden passing of Blubrry founder and longtime New Media Show co-host Todd Cochrane forced the company, its team, and Todd's family to navigate an unexpected personal and business transition. Barry explains how Blubrry responded, how leadership responsibilities shifted, and how his management approach differs from Todd's hard-charging entrepreneurial style. Barry is bringing a more data-driven and systems-focused approach while trusting Blubrry's experienced remote team to carry the company forward. The conversation also examines how podcasting itself is changing. Audio remains central to the medium, but video has become part of how audiences define and experience podcasts. Rob and Barry discuss YouTube discovery, the overlap between watching and listening, short-form clips, RSS distribution, Apple's HLS video support, alternative enclosures, Podcasting 2.0, and Blubrry's Vid2Pod tool for turning YouTube videos into audio podcast episodes. Barry also shares an update on Blubrry's HLS video development and discusses the company's new lower-priced starter plan introduced around the time of the recording. Artificial intelligence is another major part of Blubrry's next chapter. Barry explains how he uses Claude as a daily assistant for analytics, automation, research, and company operations. Barry sees AI as a way to make podcast creation and management easier, especially for creators who may not have extensive technical experience. At the same time, Blubrry's larger goal is to use technology to support human expression rather than replace the human connection that gives podcasting its value. Rob and Barry discuss low-effort AI-generated content, synthetic media, voice cloning, the limitations of automated clipping tools, and the growing need to distinguish human-hosted shows from fully automated productions. The discussion then moves into monetization and the opportunities still available to independent creators. Barry argues that smaller shows can create meaningful business value when they serve a clearly defined audience and develop strong relationships with listeners. Creators do not necessarily need millions of downloads. A focused show with several hundred deeply engaged listeners can provide valuable access to a professional, geographic, or consumer community. Barry also reflects on Blubrry's early work with host-read advertising and Todd Cochrane's long-running sponsorship relationship with GoDaddy as examples of how trust, consistency, niche relevance, and audience connection can create durable advertiser value. Rob and Barry also examine the challenge of measuring audio and video under a common standard. HLS video, progressive audio downloads, platform-controlled playback, and various delivery methods complicate the determination of what should count as a verified play. The discussion explores why common measurement matters to advertisers and why the industry may need different technical approaches for audio and video consumption. The episode closes with a broader look at the increasingly competitive podcast-hosting market. Hosting, storage, and delivery have become commodities. The competitive difference now comes from the tools, services, support, analytics, workflows, distribution options, and human expertise built around the infrastructure. For Blubrry, that includes PowerPress, WordPress integration, video support, Vid2Pod, Podcasting 2.0 features, AI-assisted workflows, monetization options, analytics, and access to experienced human support. Both reflect on the legacy Todd Cochrane helped create and provide a detailed look at how Blubrry plans to move forward in a media environment shaped by audio, video, AI, open distribution, creator ownership, and changing audience expectations. Key Discussion Topics: – Blubrry's transition following Todd Cochrane's passing – Barry Kantz's leadership and management approach – How the Blubrry team responded to sudden change – Todd's influence on podcasting and the open ecosystem – The evolving definition of a podcast – Audience movement between watching and listening – YouTube discovery and short-form video – Blubrry's Vid2Pod technology – Apple HLS video support – RSS, alternative enclosures, and Podcasting 2.0 – Blubrry's lower-priced starter plan – AI-assisted podcast production and operations – Human-hosted media versus automated content – Voice cloning, authenticity, and audience trust – Monetization for independent and niche creators – Host-read advertising and direct sponsorships – Measuring audio and video consumption – Podcast hosting as a commodity – PowerPress and the continuing role of WordPress – Human customer support as a competitive advantage – The future of independent podcasting Chapter Time Stamps: 00:00 Welcome to The New Media Show Episode 678 00:44 Blubrry's role in the open podcast ecosystem 02:03 Introducing Barry Kantz, CEO and CFO of Blubrry Podcasting 03:31 The sudden loss of former co-founder/CEO of Blubrry, Todd Cochrane 05:22 How the Blubrry team responded 06:29 Barry's leadership style compared with Todd's 08:17 Bringing data and operational systems into the company 09:57 How Todd might view today's podcast market 11:11 Video becomes part of podcasting 13:20 Blubrry's Vid2Pod product 14:46 Barry's transition from CFO to CEO 18:14 The opportunity for independent creators 20:00 Who now defines what a podcast is? 21:07 Audiences move between watching and listening 23:24 YouTube discovery and the importance of Shorts 24:55 The limitations of AI-generated clips 26:20 Blubrry's Apple HLS video rollout 28:12 Blubrry introduces a lower-priced starter plan 29:08 Alternative enclosures and Podcasting 2.0 30:34 Barry's use of Claude as an AI assistant 32:02 Supporting human creators while limiting AI slop 33:20 Voice cloning and the challenge of replicating humanity 36:18 Blubrry's philosophy on podcast monetization 37:30 How niche shows can attract direct sponsors 39:27 Managing expectations for new podcasters 43:16 Measuring HLS video and audio downloads 46:45 New competition in podcast hosting 47:36 Why hosting has become a commodity 50:45 Product focus, acquisitions, and platform complexity 52:01 WordPress, PowerPress, and AI-assisted websites 55:00 Blubrry's commitment to human customer support 57:31 Closing thoughts on Blubrry's future About the Guest: Barry Kantz is CEO and CFO of Blubrry Podcasting and one of the original founders of its parent company, RawVoice.

Podcast ONE: 10 de julio de 2026 Chat Control en la UE, estafas en TikTok y precios de PC por las nubes: @vincent_quezada y @zoomdigitaltv lo analizan todo en #one_digital #onedigital #PodcastONE. Escucha aquí el Podcast ONE: 10 de julio de 2026 One Digital: Chat Control en la UE, estafas en TikTok y el alza de precios en tecnología en 2026 y cómo prepararte Vincent Quezada y Pablo Berruecos repasan en vivo desde São Paulo y Ciudad de México el 10.º aniversario de Pokémon Go, la nueva ley de “Chat Control” en la Unión Europea, un fraude viral en TikTok y el impacto de la escasez de memoria RAM en los precios de PCs y consolas rumbo al Back to School 2026. ¿Qué se celebró en el décimo aniversario de Pokémon Go? Vincent Quezada detalló que Pokémon Go, lanzado el 6 de julio de 2016, cumplió una década transformando calles y parques en escenarios de exploración, con el evento “Siempre Adelante” activo hasta el 12 de julio y el debut de Mega Mewtwo X y Mega Mewtwo Y de forma gratuita para todos los entrenadores. Se requieren al menos 10 entrenadores con un Mega Pokémon en el equipo para romper los escudos de las Super Mega Incursiones. Cada forma de Mega Mewtwo necesita hasta 7,500 puntos de mega energía específica para evolucionar sin costo inicial. “Todos los entrenadores deben tener un mega Pokémon en su equipo. Si hay 10 jugadores, los 10 deben contribuir” — Vincent Quezada ¿Cómo afecta la nueva ley europea a la privacidad digital? Pablo Berruecos explicó que el Parlamento Europeo aprobó una prórroga temporal conocida como “Chat Control 1.0”, que permite a empresas como Meta, Google y Microsoft escanear voluntariamente imágenes de abuso infantil, excluyendo comunicaciones cifradas de extremo a extremo como WhatsApp o Signal. La votación quedó en 276 a favor y 314 en contra, pero no alcanzó la mayoría absoluta de 361 votos necesaria para bloquearla, por lo que la medida siguió adelante. “No significa que la Unión Europea vaya a leer todos los chats privados… continúa el régimen temporal que permite el escaneo voluntario por parte de algunas plataformas” — Pablo Berruecos Vincent Quezada añadió una reflexión crítica sobre el equilibrio entre seguridad y libertad de expresión en la era digital, comparando el debate con la ya casi olvidada ley SOPA de hace 14 años. ¿Qué fraude de TikTok deben evitar los usuarios? Pablo Berruecos compartió una experiencia personal con un esquema fraudulento que ofrecía 2,000 pesos por ver 100 videos en TikTok, redirigiendo a los usuarios a páginas externas falsas vía WhatsApp para robar datos y crear granjas de bots. Las cuentas fraudulentas se reabren constantemente tras ser suspendidas, replicando el mismo esquema con nuevas víctimas. A diferencia de YouTube, que verifica contenido en minutos, TikTok tarda más en detectar estas estafas recurrentes. “Es una estafa donde te están enviando constantemente molestias… y te pagan mucho menos de lo que te habían propuesto” — Pablo Berruecos ¿Qué trae la nueva temporada de Diablo IV? Vincent Quezada presentó la temporada “El Despertar de la Muerte”, centrada en las Rupturas del Pandemonio, un nuevo sistema de riesgo-recompensa con tres variantes (normales, crecientes y colosales) y el modo en solitario sin comercio para jugadores autosuficientes. También destacó la colaboración cosmética temporal con Overwatch, que incluye al espíritu del zorro de Kiriko como recompensa final. ¿Por qué subieron los precios de PCs y consolas en 2026? Vincent Quezada atribuyó el alza de precios a la escasez global de memoria RAM, agravada por tensiones comerciales internacionales, señalando que incluso Meta reactivó servidores con tecnología DDR4 más antigua para reducir costos. Según datos de The CIU citados en el programa, el mercado mexicano de consolas fijas representa 16.6 millones de usuarios y genera 33,600 millones de pesos, equivalentes al 79.4% del mercado total de videojuegos. Xbox despidió a 4,000 empleados la misma semana en que defendía el formato físico frente a Sony. Apple fue la excepción con el modelo Neo, orientado a estudiantes con más de 12 horas de batería. “Si alguien tiene dinero para el Back to School… cómprenlo porque van a comprar más cara con las mismas características” — Vincent Quezada Rumbo al 20 aniversario de One Digital Los conductores anticiparon la celebración del 20.º aniversario del programa el 31 de julio, con regalos digitales confirmados para PC, PlayStation 5 y Xbox, además de marcas que ya están sumándose a la iniciativa.

Hosts Jesse Jackson and Sylvan Groth continue their alphabetical countdown of John Hiatt songs, discussing “One Stiff Breeze,” track 10 of 11 on The Eclipse Sessions, recorded October 5, 2017 at The Rock House in Franklin, Tennessee, with Hiatt (acoustic/vocals), Kenny Blevins (drums), Patrick O'Hearn (bass), Yates McKendree (lead guitar), and Kevin McKendree (piano/organ). Sylvan shares album stats (average 4.15 stars; prior low “The Odds of Loving You” at 3 and high “Cry to Me” at 5), notes no covers found, and reads a Hiatt quote about brain research and how we listen to music. Both hosts struggle to interpret the song's chorus and meaning, preferring the verses as a poem, and find the repeated “I love you” coda off-putting; Jesse rates it 2 stars and Sylvan 1, then they invite listener feedback via email and social media and close the episode. 00:00 Welcome and Catch Up 01:36 Upcoming Shows Talk 02:32 Song Facts Breakdown 04:09 Songwriting Brain Quote 05:36 Quick Reactions After Break 06:37 Chorus Lyrics Confusion 09:21 Fiery Hair Verse 12:02 Darkness and Flashlight Eyes 16:35 Dust in the Wind Theme 18:07 Does the Chorus Fit 21:21 ChatGPT Take and Pushback 23:42 Ratings and Final Verdict 25:29 How to Send Feedback 27:41 Wrap Up and Sign Off Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of The New Media Show, host 2017 Podcast Hall of Famer Rob Greenlee welcomes Sam Sethi, founder of TrueFans and co-host of the Podnews Weekly Review. They had a wide-ranging conversation about the future of podcasting inside the larger creator economy. Podcasting helped create the independent creator movement through RSS, niche audiences, direct publishing, and long-form content that builds audience trust. Today's creators are building broader businesses around video, memberships, newsletters, live events, merchandise, premium content, clips, community, and direct fan relationships. So, can the creator economy help build a better, more sustainable podcasting industry? Rob and Sam explore why podcasting can no longer think only in terms of feeds, files, downloads, and ad impressions. They discuss the rise of creator portals, the importance of owning the relationship with audiences, and how platforms such as Patreon, Substack, Beehiiv, YouTube, Spotify, and Apple are changing creator expectations. The conversation also examines whether advertising is becoming less central to the creator business model, and how subscriptions, premium content, micropayments, stablecoins, and value-for-value models could create new ways to share revenue among creators, listening apps, platforms, and even audiences. Sam shares his perspective on HLS streaming, watch time and listen time analytics, activity streams, super fans, publisher feeds, and “super feeds” that can connect audio, video, events, merchandise, blogs, and community into a more portable, creator-owned media presence. Rob and Sam also dig into the impact of AI on podcasting: AI-generated shows, human engagement as a discovery signal, AI bots scraping media, the rising need for clear content licensing, and the tension between making content available to AI discovery systems while protecting creator rights and value. This episode is a deep look at where open RSS, creator ownership, platform control, AI discovery, video, monetization, and audience relationships may be heading next. Topics covered in this episode include: • The evolution of podcasting into a broader creator-led media business • Why creators need direct relationships with fans, not just platform reach • Creator portals – memberships, newsletters, live events, merchandise, and premium content • Whether ad-supported podcasting is becoming less important • HLS streaming, listen-time and watch-time measurement, and better advertising accountability • Micropayments, value-for-value, stablecoins, and new revenue-sharing models • Activity streams, super fans, community engagement, and audience signals • AI-generated podcasts, discovery, AI bots, and licensing creator content • Publisher feeds, super feeds, playlists, and collective buying power for independent creators • Open RSS, data portability, proprietary platforms, and the future of media distribution The New Media Show is a human-hosted and guested conversation about the future of creator-led digital media, including podcasting, video, live streaming, AI, audience trust, discovery, monetization, platforms, and the changing relationship between creators and their communities.

Should every use of AI in a podcast, video, or creator workflow be disclosed? A better question is whether AI created the actual substance of what the audience came to hear or watch. On Episode 670 of the New Media Show, Rob Greenlee is joined by Alberto Betella, co-founder of RSS.com and creator of “Should I Disclose AI?“ Is a timely conversation about AI transparency, synthetic media, voice cloning, human trust, and the future of creator-led media. AI is now helping creators edit video, create captions, translate episodes, generate clips, improve workflows, personalize advertising, and accelerate production. But AI can also generate entire shows, clone voices, imitate experts, create deceptive media, and overwhelm platforms with low-effort content. The challenge is not simply whether AI was used. The challenge is understanding when AI use changes what the audience is actually receiving. Alberto shares his practical “Substance Test” framework for AI disclosure. The central idea is simple: if AI created the core performance, information, expertise, or experience that brought the audience to the content, creators should disclose it. But using AI as a supporting production tool does not necessarily mean the entire episode should be labeled as AI-generated. Rob and Alberto explore the difficult gray areas: AI-translated episodes, cloned voices reading human-written scripts, AI-written scripts read by humans, platform auto-labeling, watermarking, creator consent, programmatic advertising, AI search, and the future value of human-made media. They also discuss why disclosure should not be a punishment or a stigma. Transparency can give audiences more context, help platforms manage risk, and allow creators to use AI responsibly without pretending that every use of AI is deceptive or low quality. The bigger question is whether creators can use AI to make better work while still protecting the human trust, judgment, originality, and relationships that make media meaningful.

In episode 669 of the New Media Show, host Rob Greenlee talks with Rob Walch, VP of Podcaster Relations at Captivate and DAX. Podcast Hall of Famers Rob Walch and Rob Greenlee discuss one of the biggest pressure points facing creators today: Can human creators grow, monetize, and maintain audience trust as platforms fill with AI-generated podcasts, synthetic video, cloned voices, and automated content channels? I apologize for the rough audio in this episode. The audio was choppy in the virtual recording, and I did the best I could to improve it. The conversation begins with a bigger question: Where is the line between useful AI tools and low-effort, fully automated content that weakens trust, damages advertising ROI, and makes it harder for original creators to be discovered and rewarded? AI can help creators research, edit, translate, caption, clip, and distribute their work more efficiently. But the human perspective, real creative judgment, authentic voice, and trusted audience relationship must remain at the center of the content experience. Rob Walch shares updates on Captivate, DAX, and the evolving podcast monetization landscape before diving into the rise of mass-produced AI content and the growing use of the term “AI slop.” Rob Greenlee and Rob Walch discuss why not every use of AI belongs in the same category, why transparency and disclosure matter, and how creators can use AI responsibly without losing the human value that makes their work worth following. They also explore YouTube's evolving AI-labeling approach, the future of human-generated content, platform responsibility, advertising risks, Apple HLS video, YouTube's new focus on audio listening, video-versus-audio strategy, and how AI tools may help independent creators manage a rapidly expanding distribution workload. The larger takeaway is that creators do not need to choose between being human and using AI. The opportunity is to use AI as a creative and operational assistant while keeping human thinking, trust, judgment, relationships, and original perspective at the core of the work. 00:00 Welcome to New Media Show #669 01:30 Introducing Rob Walch and His New Role at Captivate 02:30 Captivate Marketplace and Creator Monetization 05:00 What DAX and Global Bring to Podcast Advertising 08:30 What Does “AI Slop” Actually Mean? 11:00 How Mass AI Content Could Hurt Ad ROI and CPMs 13:30 The Scale of AI-Generated Podcast Uploads 16:00 Why AI Use Is Not One-Size-Fits-All 18:00 Bad Human Content vs. Bad AI Content 20:00 Platform Responsibility, Spam, and Fraud 22:00 YouTube AI Labeling and Creator Disclosure 25:00 AI Watermarks, Trust, and Human-Generated Content 28:00 Will Advertisers Prefer Human-Hosted Shows? 30:00 When Creators Should Disclose AI Use 33:00 AI Tools for Research, Editing, Audio Cleanup, and Workflows 36:00 Human Creativity Still Matters 39:00 Platform Discovery, Algorithms, and Audience Signals 44:00 Audio, Video, and YouTube's Growing Interest in Listening 49:00 Apple HLS Video and the Podcast Monetization Challenge 54:00 Video Production, Baked-In Ads, and Creator Complexity 57:00 Why New Creators Can Still Start Audio-First 01:00:00 AI-Powered Clips, Repurposing, and Distribution 01:03:00 Monetization Risks and Alternatives Beyond Advertising 01:07:00 Podcast Standards, Video Metrics, and IAB Definitions 01:11:00 The Future of Audio, Video, AI, and Trusted Human Creators 01:19:00 Closing Thoughts and Where to Find Rob Walch Guest and Host Links Guest: Rob Walch VP of Podcaster Relations, Captivate and DAX Captivate: https://Captivate.fm Global DAX: https://Global.com Podcast411: https://Podcast411.com Host: Rob Greenlee New Media Show: https://NewMediaShow.com Rob Greenlee: https://RobGreenlee.com Trust Factor Lab: https://TrustFactorLab.com Podcast Hall of Fame: https://PodcastHall.com Rob Greenlee on LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/robgreenlee Rob Greenlee Booking: https://calendly.com/robgreenlee About the Host/Author: Rob Greenlee is a 2017 Podcast Hall of Fame inductee and Chair, a global new-media leader who bridges podcasting's human roots and its AI-driven future.

In episode 668 of the New Media Show, host Rob Greenlee talks with Ollie Forsyth, founder of New Economies and New-Media.co, about the fast-changing meaning of “New Media” and why creator-led media is becoming one of the most important shifts in digital publishing, podcasting, video, newsletters, live streaming, and AI-powered content. The conversation begins with a bigger question: what does “New Media” mean now? For years, the term New Media has described digital media outside traditional broadcast, print, and cable. But in 2026, the meaning is changing again. New Media is becoming less about a format and more about who the audience trusts, where attention is moving, and how creators are building direct relationships through podcasts, YouTube channels, newsletters, X, Instagram, live shows, private communities, short-form clips, and emerging AI-generated formats. Ollie shares how New-Media.co started as a mapping project focused on tech newsletters, podcasts, and creator-led media brands, and quickly became a broader signal that a new category is forming. New Media is no longer just a description of online content. It is becoming a business, creator, and distribution category. Rob and Ollie explore whether podcasting is still its own category or is becoming one lane within a larger New Media ecosystem. Rob brings the long history of podcasting, RSS, video podcasting, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Spotify, Netflix, and creator platforms into the discussion, asking whether the word “podcast” is still enough to describe what audiences now consume. A major theme in this episode is the difference between audience size and audience value. Ollie argues that creators do not always need massive audiences if they have focused, valuable, trusted communities. A show with 5,000 highly relevant listeners or viewers can be more valuable than a much larger audience that does not convert or engage. The discussion also moves into traditional media and why legacy media companies may struggle to adapt to this new creator-led environment. Ollie says the difference is not just production quality. It is the vibe, the trust, the format, and the feeling that audiences are getting access to something more direct and less institutional. Rob and Ollie also talk about how X, Instagram, YouTube, newsletters, and short-form clips are becoming the new media distribution stack. YouTube remains central for video and long-form discovery, while X and Instagram are becoming powerful platforms for attention and conversation for creators and media brands. The final part of the episode turns to AI-generated content, synthetic media, AI micro-dramas, AI-generated podcasts, disclosure, and audience trust. Rob raises the tension around the term “AI slop” and whether the podcast industry is reacting differently to bad AI content than it has historically reacted to bad human-created content. Ollie argues that AI can help create new forms of content, but it cannot replace the human element, charisma, taste, and trust that make a real show work. This episode lands on a core New Media Show idea: podcasting helped build the foundation of today's creator-led media world, but the next era is broader, more video-driven, more AI-assisted, more platform-diverse, and more dependent on human trust than ever before. Key Topics: What “New Media” means in 2026 Why creator-led media is gaining cultural and business influence New Media vs. the creator economy How New-Media.co maps creators, newsletters, podcasts, and media brands Why podcasting may now be one lane inside a broader media ecosystem Audience size vs. audience value Why niche audiences can be more powerful than mass reach How creators are building multi-platform distribution systems YouTube, X, Instagram, Substack, newsletters, and short-form video The role of clips in modern media growth Why traditional media struggles to capture the creator-led “vibe” How legacy media companies could partner with creators Why “podcast” may be an audience term more than a creator identity Netflix, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and the shifting meaning of shows AI-generated podcasts, AI micro-dramas, and synthetic content Disclosure and transparency around AI-created media Why human taste, trust, charisma, and curation still matter The future of podcasting inside the larger New Media category Chapter Markers: 00:00 Welcome to New Media Show #668 00:30 Why New Media Is Entering a New Era 01:30 Introducing Ollie Forsyth 03:00 What New Media Means Now 04:00 How New-Media.co Started 05:30 Why the New Media Category Is Gaining Attention 06:30 Mapping the New Media Landscape 08:00 How Creators Get Discovered 10:00 Creator Economy vs. New Media 11:30 Why OpenAI and TBPN Became a Signal 13:30 Audience Value vs. Audience Size 16:30 Timely vs. Timeless Content 18:00 Why Distribution Channels Matter 20:00 Are Podcasters Becoming Creators? 21:30 AI Micro-Dramas and New Entertainment Formats 23:00 Short-Form Content and Creator ROI 25:00 Building Multiple Distribution Channels 27:00 Is Podcasting Still the Right Term? 29:00 Apple Podcasts, HLS Video, and YouTube's Influence 31:30 New Media as a Broader Category 32:30 Why AI Companies Want New Media Shows 33:30 Why Legacy Media Struggles to Adapt 35:00 The Vibe Difference Between Traditional Media and Creator Media 37:00 X, Instagram, and the New Distribution Stack 40:30 YouTube, Video, and Future-Proofing Media Brands 43:00 Planning Content Like a Media Company 45:00 Is Podcasting One Lane on a Bigger Freeway? 48:00 Why Creators Need More Than One Channel 50:00 Does the Audience Care What We Call It? 52:00 Is It Just a Show Now? 53:30 Netflix, YouTube, and Audience Expectations 55:00 Is New Media Here to Stay? 56:30 Taste, Attention, and Human Connection 58:30 AI-Generated Content and Podcasting's Reaction 01:00:30 AI Disclosure and Transparency 01:02:00 AI Micro-Dramas and Synthetic Media 01:03:30 Can AI Replace the Human Element? 01:05:00 Bad AI Content vs. Bad Human Content 01:07:00 Why YouTube Raises the Production Bar 01:09:00 Why Human Curation Still Matters 01:11:00 Where New Media Goes Next 01:13:00 Closing Thoughts Guest and Host Links Guest: Ollie Forsyth Founder, New Economies and New-Media.co New Media: new-media.co New Economies: neweconomies.co Host: Rob Greenlee New Media Show: NewMediaShow.com Rob Greenlee: RobGreenlee.com Podcast Hall of Fame: PodcastHall.com Rob Greenlee on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/robgreenlee Rob Greenlee Booking: calendly.com/robgreenlee About the Host/Author: Rob Greenlee is a 2017 Podcast Hall of Fame inductee and Chair, a global new-media leader who bridges podcasting's human roots and its AI-driven future.

In episode 666 of the New Media Show, hosted by 2017 Podcast Hall of Famer Rob Greenlee, Rob talks with Greg Wasserman, Head of Relationships at RSS.com and host of Podcast Network Insights, for a deep conversation about one of the biggest questions facing podcasting, video, creator media, and digital networks right now: Podcast networks were originally built for an audio-first industry, but audiences have already moved the definition of a podcast beyond audio. Today, a podcast can be a YouTube show, a Spotify video, an Apple video podcast, a livestream, a short clip, a newsletter, a community, or part of a larger creator-led media brand. Greg brings a unique perspective from his work at RSS.com and from interviewing the leaders behind podcast networks, collectives, production companies, and niche media groups on Podcast Network Insights. He explains that podcast networks are no longer one simple model. Some are media-sales businesses. Some are community-driven groups. Some operate more like production companies, collectives, or full creator networks. Rob and Greg explore how the network model is shifting as video, live streaming, AI, Apple Podcasts, HLS video, YouTube, Netflix, Spotify, FAST channels, private communities, and creator monetization reshape what podcasting can become. The conversation also asks whether independent podcasters should join networks, what creators need to understand before making that decision, and why the future may depend less on downloads alone and more on trust, audience relationships, collaboration, niche value, and direct monetization. 00:00 Welcome to New Media Show #666 00:32 Are podcast networks becoming creator networks? 01:00 How audiences have already redefined podcasting 02:00 Introducing Greg Wasserman from RSS.com 03:00 Why Greg created Podcast Network Insights 04:00 How different podcast networks define community 05:00 Monetization, growth, and the changing role of networks 06:00 Internal network community vs audience community 07:00 Private communities, subscriptions, and audience relationships 08:00 Nova Podcast Network and media-company network models 09:00 Cross-promotion and collaboration inside networks 10:00 Are creators returning to collaboration? 11:00 Podcast networks as media companies 13:00 Owned-and-operated shows vs independent rev-share shows 15:00 Why ad revenue is not the only network business model 16:00 Marketing Podcast Network and niche value 17:00 Jay Shetty, Netflix, and platform exclusivity 18:00 Is Netflix becoming a podcast network? 19:00 Collectives, media companies, and different network definitions 20:00 What is a podcast network today? 21:00 Production companies and network partnerships 23:00 How creators should decide whether to join a network 24:00 Understanding your “why” before joining a network 25:00 iHeart, ad inventory, and the volume-based network model 26:00 Why sponsor status can distract from real monetization 27:00 Does network branding still matter? 28:00 Pineapple Street, GZM, Disney, and network identity 30:00 MCNs, YouTube networks, and the return of multi-channel networks 31:00 Silicon Valley, new media networks, and digital-native media 34:00 Traditional media adopts podcasting, video, and companion content 35:00 Apple Podcasts HLS video as a future distribution channel 36:00 Why video attracts higher media dollars 37:00 Know, like, and trust as a creator value 38:00 Will Apple Podcasts HLS video matter? 39:00 Free platforms, hidden costs, and creator control 41:00 Future ad dashboards across Spotify, Apple, YouTube, and Twitch 42:00 Platform exclusivity, Jay Shetty, Joe Rogan, and audience loss 44:00 Creator hustle and why networks cannot do all the work 46:00 Subscription fatigue and fragmented media access 47:00 More than 20 ways creators can make money 48:00 Lean creator teams, production help, and content scale 49:00 How podcast networks are using AI 50:00 AI-generated voices, sleep content, and audience behavior 52:00 AI for ads, scripts, show notes, social, and workflows 53:00 AI podcast networks and automated show creation 54:00 Agentic workflows and creator production systems 56:00 AI-generated content, humanity, and audience trust 57:00 Algorithms, AI interfaces, and future discovery 58:00 Platform algorithm changes and creator risk 59:00 Human connection, live events, and AI video podcasts 01:00:00 Why human storytelling still matters 01:01:00 Could creators build AI clones of themselves? 01:02:00 Avatars, HeyGen, Gemini, and disclosure 01:03:00 Human-hosted content labels and AI transparency 01:04:00 Video-first creators and separate audio/video feeds 01:05:00 Why The New Media Show still uses separate audio and video feeds 01:06:00 Audio-first creators, social media, and growth challenges 01:07:00 Different networks play different games 01:08:00 The future of compelling audio experiences 01:09:00 Spatial audio, AI audio, and interactive media 01:10:00 Personalized audience experiences and liquid content 01:11:00 Can audiences be moved from YouTube to Netflix? 01:12:00 Bundling, subscriptions, and platform experiments 01:15:00 Algorithms vs human curation 01:16:00 Netflix, FAST channels, and new distribution models 01:17:00 The technology challenge behind FAST channels 01:23:00 Greg's Tesla and the future of in-car video podcast listening 01:24:00 RSS.com, Podcasting 2.0, and AI labeling standards 01:25:00 Closing thoughts and where podcasting is heading Guest and Host Links Guest: Greg Wasserman Head of Relationships at RSS.com and host of Podcast Network Insights RSS.com: https://rss.com Greg Wasserman at RSS.com: https://rss.com/blog/greg-wasserman/ Podcast Network Insights: https://rss.com/podcasts/podcast-network-insights/ Greg Wasserman on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregwasserman Host: Rob Greenlee New Media Show: https://newmediashow.com Rob Greenlee: https://robgreenlee.com Podcast Hall of Fame: https://podcasthall.com Rob Greenlee on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robgreenlee Rob Greenlee Booking: https://calendly.com/robgreenlee About the Host/Author: Rob Greenlee is a 2017 Podcast Hall of Fame inductee and Chair, a global new-media leader who bridges podcasting's human roots and its AI-driven future.

In episode 665 of the New Media Show, hosted by 2017 Podcast Hall of Famer Rob Greenlee, Rob talks with Ashley Christenson, also known as Ashni, for a deep conversation about one of the most important questions facing podcasting, streaming, creator media, startups, and traditional media right now: What does “New Media” actually mean today? The term “New Media” has been around since the late 1990s, but its meaning is shifting again. What once described digital media outside traditional broadcast and print is now being used by creators, VCs, startups, streaming strategists, AI companies, and professional communities to refer to something more specific: creator-led media that builds trust, influence, industry position, and direct audience relationships. Ashley brings a unique perspective from 13 years in online media, Twitch streaming, YouTube education, startup marketing, community building, and creator strategy. She explains that she sees the creator economy as building an audience as the asset, whereas the emerging version of New Media is more about building status and position within an industry conversation. In her view, the key difference is not simply between consumer and professional audiences, but about what the media operation is designed to build and protect. Rob brings the longer history of podcasting and digital media into the discussion, asking whether podcasting was one of the first major expressions of New Media and whether it now sits within a much larger creator-led ecosystem. The conversation explores how podcasting, YouTube, streaming video, newsletters, live shows, X, AI-generated content, and Apple Podcasts' move toward HLS video streaming are all blurring the old lines between podcasting, creator media, and professional media. A major theme in this episode is whether podcasting is still its own category or has become a powerful format within the broader New Media industry. Rob argues that the word “podcast” is increasingly defined by audiences and platforms, while creators may need to think more broadly as show builders, media operators, and participants in the creator economy. Ashley and Rob also explore how X is becoming a real-time professional media layer, why founders, investors, executives, and AI builders are returning to the platform, and why companies are experimenting with live streaming, clipping, launch videos, short-form content, and creator-style formats to reach professional audiences. The episode also moves into AI-generated media, human-hosted content, AI clones, disclosure, and trust. Rob argues that human-created and AI-created content may both need clear labeling, while Ashley points out that long-form podcasts may remain more defensible because listeners often build real relationships with hosts over time. This conversation lands on a bigger media reality: New Media is no longer just a technology term. It is becoming a business category, a creator category, a trust category, and a professional influence category. Podcasting helped build the foundation, but the next version of New Media is broader, more video-driven, more AI-assisted, more platform-diverse, and more dependent on trust than ever before.

In this episode of This Week in Pharmacy, we explore how the Pharmacy Podcast Network (PPN) is deepening connections across healthcare by elevating pharmacists' voices in the conversations that matter most. Inspired by the recent partnership between podcasting giant PodcastOne and the AI-driven analytics platform Listener, we highlight how PPN is using the same type of advanced engagement metrics—combining podcast listener data, social media signals, and network insights—to measure true influence, not just downloads. With Listener's powerful data, PPN can now identify where pharmacists are making the greatest impact and uncover new opportunities to expand pharmacist positioning with other providers, industry leaders, and the public. Plus, Todd sits down one-on-one with Kris Rhea of Pharmacy Market Place for an insightful conversation on AI in pharmacy—exploring how artificial intelligence is shaping workflow, clinical decision-making, business operations, and what pharmacists need to know to stay ahead in a rapidly changing healthcare landscape.

In this Thanksgiving-week episode, the panel unpacks the final message of the Déjà Vu series — “Make a Difference.” The conversation explores why it's so hard to believe that God actually delights in us, especially during seasons of pain. Looking at Zephaniah 3:17, the crew wrestles with the tension between cultural entitlement and the biblical reality that suffering forms us, shapes us, and ultimately reveals God's glory in us.Through stories from Galen's sermon, Joseph's journey, Paul's imprisonment, and even the chaotic moments of parenting toddlers, the group digs into how endurance grows one “stitch” at a time. They discuss discovering your purpose through serving, stepping into uncomfortable callings, and learning what biblical contentment really means. If you've ever wondered how to trust God in hardship or why He calls you into things that feel bigger than you, this episode will speak right into that tension.

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Ever wonder why some brand podcasts blow up while others die after five episodes? Or why a few companies seem to build die-hard fans while other can't seem to connect? Today's guest specializes in helping brands create podcasts that deliver true value. He explains how brands can use podcasting to build real connection, not just rack up downloads. From breaking up with the traditional ad world to creating top-ranked shows for global brands, he reveals why consistency, authenticity, and a bit of weirdness might be your secret weapons. Roger Nairn is the Co-Founder and CEO of JAR Podcast Solutions, a brand podcast agency based in Vancouver, BC. With a 25-person team, Roger helps brands like Amazon and Sage create shows that connect deeply with their audiences. After spending over two decades in the advertising world at top agencies like DDB and Cossette, he's now on a mission to show companies that the real ROI of podcasting isn't downloads, it's attention and connection. In this episode, we'll discuss: What brands really want in a podcast. Why consistency beats quick wins. Audiences prefer audio podcasts over video ones. Why is that?

From Ad Exec to Agency Founder Before podcasting, Roger spent more than 22 years in the traditional advertising world and loved the culture, but he noticed the industry shifting. Programmatic ads were taking over, budgets were shrinking, and the whole game was turning into a race to the bottom. Around the same time, Roger started podcasting as a hobby, mainly as an excuse to talk to people he admired like Seth Godin and Stefan Sagmeister. When he eventually connected with his co-founders, they realized there was a wide-open opportunity for brands to use podcasts in a smarter way. JAR Podcast Solutions was born. The idea wasn't just to launch shows, but to help brands understand their audiences and create the kind of binge-worthy audio content that builds trust over time. What Brands Really Want in a Podcast One of Roger's first steps was sending out message to ten different businesses on LinkedIn. The second response he received referred him to the head of marketing of Sage, a brand whose audience wanted to explore wellness beyond traditional medicine. A few days later they sat down to discuss what a podcast could look like for that brand and ended up creating Well Now, a show about taking control of your health through alternative approaches and powerful personal stories. The show took off, so much so that it briefly outranked Oprah in Apple's health and wellness category. The key wasn't just producing episodes, it was research. Roger's team uncovered what Sage's audience really wanted and built the podcast around those needs. This is true for every brand wanting to launch a podcast: stop creating content for yourself, and start with what your audience actually cares about. Consistency Beats Quick Wins Contrary to what many think, podcasting is not an overnight growth hack. Too many brands think they'll see results instantly. The reality is building an audience takes time. The good news is that, according to Roger, the podcast industry remains incredibly friendly and willing to collaborate, which is a great way reach new audiences. Other important steps to grow include pitching your show to big platforms like Apple Podcasts and getting them to feature it, as well as the actual merchandizing of the show. All of this, however, will amount to nothing without the most important element: consistency. If you want to stay consistent, do not compare yourself with the big players out there. This is the biggest enemy of consistency and will only lead to frustration. Don't expect to be the next Joe Rogan in year one or you'll end up disappointed and unmotivated to keep posting. Instead of focusing on vanity metrics like downloads, Roger recommends focusing on consumption. Without a doubt, creating a podcast might be the single most important things you can do to build your brand. If your listeners are spending two hours a month with the brand, that's two hours of intimate attention—something no other marketing channel can match. Why Audio Wins Over Video While many companies want both video and audio, audio tends to outperform. According to Roger, this happens because listening to a podcast is intimate. It's you in someone's ear while they drive, work out, or walk the dog. It's “me time,” not multitasking. Compare that to video, where distractions are constant and attention spans are short. Unless you're a celebrity like the Kelce brothers or Joe Rogan, most people aren't going to watch two talking heads for hours. They'll sample a short video clip, but they'll actually consume the full conversation in audio. The portability of podcasts makes them an executive's favorite medium, because you can take them anywhere, from the car to the gym to the airport lounge. In fact, new research shows that people will switch how they're watching throughout the day. They may start watching it on their TV and later switch to audio while they're at the gym. The Real Secret: Authenticity Over Perfection Beyond consistency, Roger emphasized that the best podcasts bring personality and vulnerability to the table. Listeners don't want a polished corporate message. They want the real you with flaws, mistakes, and all. Listeners often recall personal details Jason's mentioned on the show, like anecdotes about Aspen. That intimacy is what makes podcasts such a powerful trust-building tool. The trick is to stop trying to sound like someone else. Early on, stop trying to be the next Gary Vee and see how much better authenticity works with the audience. As long as you're being yourself and keep consistent with posting, you can become that reliable friend that is now part of their routine and consistently delivers value to them. Once they're loyal listeners who trust you, joining your community - or even buying from you - becomes a natural next step. The Weird Side of Podcasting Of course, every podcaster has their weird stories. For his part, Roger recalled recording with a guest who had to set up shop in a hotel closet, surrounded by pillows and blankets, just to dampen the echo. Not glamorous, but it worked. Jason has also recorded a podcast at a hotel room, when right after a speaking event he was approached by two attendees who said they inspired him to start their own podcast and would go buy the equipment right that moment and wanted him to be their first guest. They saw the opportunity and took it. This is the reality of podcasting: it's not about perfection, it's about connection. If you're waiting for the perfect studio setup or production conditions, you'll never start. Get scrappy, launch, and let the consistency carry you forward.
