Podcast News: Listen Notes Sets Limits, Upcoming Podcasting Events and Job Opportunities
Listen Notes just purged nearly 2,000 AI-generated podcasts! Will other platforms follow suit? Today, we unpack this move, and we also share Apple’s long-awaited update to podcast submissions and the latest trends in the podcasting charts. We also look at must-attend podcasting events and some hot podcast-related job listings! This episode is dedicated to the memory of Niel Guilarte, a dedicated podcast professional and long-time active member of the PodFest Community and the Empowered Podcasting Community. We send our deepest condolences to his friends and family.
