It’s always a joy celebrating and congratulating creators for their hard work. Fortunately, after a break, one of podcasts most well-known and respected honors is back. The 2022 Podcast Hall of Fame inductees list has been released and the awards ceremony will be hosted at Podcast Movement Evolutions in Los Angeles in March later this year. Congratulations to all of the new inductees! We also catch you up on the latest in the ongoing Joe Rogan and Spotify story, the Ambies (another podcast awards show), and an easy way to get to know your podcast audience better.

Question of the Week
Question: What are the requirements to get on Apple Podcasts and Spotify?
Answer: I see this generic question a lot on forums and groups.
There are several, but they are mostly the same for ALL podcast apps, directories, and podcatchers.
- The first requirement is actually having a podcast. That means having at least one podcast episode published and having a podcast-compatible RSS feed to submit.
- Correct artwork size
- Media file in the designated format
- Descriptions filled out
- Category picked
- Correct artwork size
Of course, Blubrry will help you with ALL these things. That is our job! And we have a simple set of instructions here in case you’re more of a step by step learner. Learn how to Submit to Apple Podcasts here and to find instructions for many other directories here.
