• The Podnews Report Card shows that Apple Podcasts is still our most favoured podcast platform; but all the scores for the major platforms have slipped since last year. We’ve published a full list of the results of the Report Card over here; and we’re sharing it with the platforms.
• In our Editor’s keynote at Podcast Movement Evolutions, unveiling the Report Card results, there was a special guest - Adam Curry, the co-inventor of podcasting. He spoke about RSS being “the honey badger of digital distribution - no matter what they try, they cannot kill it” - and also spoke about new features in Podcasting 2.0. The full video is available to watch here.
• Exclusive: The Airwave podcast network is to launch its own book imprint, Airwave Books. It will feature books by Airwave’s podcast and video content creators. There’ll be more information at the Airwave booth at Podcast Movement Evolutions at noon today.

• Dear Media has signed Stassi Schroeder Clark’s Straight Up With Stassi. The show will be renamed “Stassi”.
• Caloroga Shark Media has signed Dig, Plant, Water, Repeat to produce a new podcast from the popular YouTube channel.
• Correction: Yesterday, we said that the Locked On Podcast Network were represented by Libsyn Ads before they signed with Adswizz. We based this on a page on the Libsyn Ads website which sold “a full network buy” of the Locked On Network. That page was deleted after we published yesterday; and both companies say that Locked On did not work with Libsyn Ads, so we clearly got things wrong and we regret the error. We’re told they were with Spotify/Megaphone.

• How To Make Your Podcast Appear More Professional is from Platform Podcasting today. No mention of “don’t record it from a busy podcast conference lobby bar”. But we did anyway.
• Should I have the word “podcast” in my podcast’s title? No, no you shouldn’t.

• Airwave congratulates our Ambie nominee: Surfing Corporate tackles the themes and issues of corporate life with a humorous and relatable point of view.
