Daniel J. Lewis, from the Audacity to Podcast, has done a very technical review, article and research about who is the fastest podcast media host. (Spoiler, Blubrry tied for 1st place!). Also, some very interesting facts about stats for some hosts.
PowerPress 7.5 (coming soon) will support WebSub, which does instant updating of Google Podcasts and others, and Multi Blubrry hosting accounts. This is good for people that want more than one podcast feed coming from their site.
The original podcast awards show: People's Choice Podcast Awards nominations are open.

Mike’s Publishing Checklist:

Publish episode (see: youtu.be/MRqsylR1uXw)
Clear the cache on your website (how to do that or if you need to do that varies with where you are hosting your site and what caching plugin you may or may not have)
Check feed on CastFeedValidator.com to make sure nothing went wrong and to make sure the episode made the RSS feed.
Check your favorite podcast app to see that you got the new episode. (YES, subscribe to your own show!)
