It’s been a long seven months here in the United States (as it has been elsewhere), and we’re only two weeks away from the U.S Presidential Debates – which was recently suggested to be hosted on Joe Rogan’s podcast, with Donald Trump and Joe Biden. We ask, is a presidential debate on a podcast a good idea?
Don’t worry we discuss more than just politics integrated into politics this episode. Such as news from Amazon Music / Audible, some moves to the Apple team, and some upcoming events.
Thanks for joining us this episode of Podcast Insider. Looking to be a guest on the show? Let us know.
Recorded live from two well-separated and socially distant podcast studios in northern and southern Michigan; here’s Podcast Insider.
News:
- Amazon Music / Audible added podcasts in the US, UK, Germany and Japan.
- Jake Shapiro, CEO of Radio Public and PRX founder moves to Apple Podcasts.
- Kara Swisher joins the New Your Times with a podcast called Sway.

Blubrry podcasters, let us interview you for the show! Tell your story of podcasting right here on Podcast Insider. Email Todd@blubrry.com, Mike@blubrry.com or MacKenzie@blubrry.com.
Support:
- Amazon Music / Audible podcasts: YES, we will be building in support for Amazon in our products. If you’d like to submit your show now, head here.
- Push vs. Pull: RSS (and podcasting) is a PULL. You create your show and create an RSS feed. All the directories and apps PULL your show when they can. It can take 24-72 hours. This is normal. That is why you want your listeners to subscribe; if they do they get episodes as soon as their app pulls your feed (normally within an hour).
