280 Celebrating 20 Years of Libsyn, Legacy and Future in Podcasting

It's our Libsyn 20th Birthday episode extravaganza! We're diving into a mini podcast history journey, packed with your incredible listener voices. We'll also rewind to podcasts' role in the Election (heads up: this drops November 5th morning, so election results are TBD!)

Big media moves alert: Veritone One and Oxford Road have joined forces, creating the podcast ad world's newest powerhouse. Plus, we're geeking out over Apple's latest hardware drops and breaking down Podtrac's fresh metrics announcement.

Audience feedback drives the show. We'd love for you to contact us and keep the conversation going! Email thefeed@libsyn.com, call 412-573-1934 or leave us a message on Speakpipe! We'd love to hear from you!
