The fact that those two tiny companies have been able to penetrate so much shows how much more room there is in the market.

The barrier of entry for podcasting is nominal so hopefully the medium won’t be completely corrupted by commercial and monopolistic forces.

The thing about podcast advertising is advertisers have much more accurate data on who is listening. Which is why they can spend less but have a hyper focused target market. It’s definitely worth the cost. Which is why it’s still very lucrative.

As someone who's been listening a long time it's been interesting to watch it grow from affiliate marketing being the only viable way of covering server costs to even medium sized podcasters at least making relatively decent wages on regular ads. It makes me wish I wasn't a bad voice broken lung audio-quality hating idiot and could do it better.

I think the money will only go up for these big podcasts because right now the bigger brands are still avoiding them for some reason. At some point companies like Budweiser and Pepsi are going to jump on board and it'll change everything.

I think the content might matter too. Like a lot of the "big" podcasters also have concomitant controversy/infamy. Not of all of them of course, but Coke isn't going to want their bumper accompanied by Simmons dad talking about the old days when he could say the n word (an event that hasn't occurred I know).

Simmons is pretty corporate safe, though some may not be huge into the "Mature Topics" that come up. I think its more like the large corporations haven't yet devised strategies for niche marketing quite like that, largely because they don't need to. The 2017 podcast advertising revenue was $314 million, which is a lot of money for individuals but pretty small when talking about advertising giants (for example, Coke spent 3.9 BILLION on advertising, 10x+ more than the entire podcast industry) It's still pretty small, but growing fast.

I still think ad spots on podcasts are worthwhile if they mix it in to the episode. I forgot that Subway was a sponsor for Simmons podcast at ESPN. But they didn't even really charge them extra for it, it was just a throw-in which is insane.

If only like half of America even knows what a podcast is, here ~12 years into the medium, what reason is there to think it will experience substantial growth going forward? Isn’t it more likely we’re already at the peak?

Isn’t it more likely we’re already at the peak? Doubtful. Its gaining steam, especially with younger people. The problem right now is it's very male dominated, and until they can find a way to get more women to listen it's not going to grow much larger. I mean, I live (and work) in a place that's not very up on current times (small town Florida) and almost all of the 25 and under crowd talk about listening to podcasts, to the point where there's actually discussions about episodes of certain ones. Hell, look at something like All Things Comedy. They have a deal with comedy central now, and started as purely a podcast network. Between that and larger festivals, it is growing. A bigger issue is how splintered they become, and people begging for money. I'm not giving you 10 bucks a month to hear a full interview, or any of that poo poo.

it's surprised me that podcasts haven't gone towards a subscription model (especially one's that are clearly higher budgeted ) but I guess the sheer amount of them makes people worried they'll get replaced. Then again, I also can't believe how much money advertisers are spending but I guess the money they used to spend on banners and poo poo has to go somewhere.

Many podcasts have gone toward subscription models. A lot of popular ones have 50% of their content behind a Patreon. A full subscription would require an established audience to work.

Isnt it more likely were already at the peak? I went to a startup pitch contest (how did my life become such a nightmare) last night to support some friends and one of the pitches was for a service that made podcasts that primarily (at this point) for medium-sized media companies that wanted to capture the podcast market without investing in producing podcasts. It was one of the more shaky pitches so I am not sure how reliable the numbers were, but they were selling the fact pretty hard that millennials and especially genzees are adopting podcasts en masse and that it's growing faster than music or audiobooks.
