Podcast Diversity
In 2008, podcast listeners were 73% white, even though white people only account for 58% of the U.S. population. But now it’s different, and the diversity of podcast audiences now closely matches that of the diversity of the United States.
Meanwhile, 36% of the U.S. have never heard of the term “podcasting”, 44% listen to them, and 26% have listened to one in the past month. There’s also a correlation between podcast listening and the amount of education you have. The research also breaks it down by gender: 24% of women listen to podcasts compared to 27% of men.
