AudioBoom sees revenue growth. The latest from podnews.net with Podcastle: Create, Edit,
Publish and Grow. Podcast monetization company AudioBoom released its quarter 1/24 financial
results. The figures show an 11% year on year growth in revenue, continued EBITDA profit
and revenue per thousand listens of a record $52.17. Things have changed. Five years ago
we reported the company's revenue per thousand listens was just $23. Production tool Alitu
now includes magic filters to automatically remove ums, ahs, filler words and long silences.
The company says it's the result of consumer feedback. Equipment manufacturer RØDE has launched
a number of new products at NAB 2024, which is taking place in Las Vegas currently. The
Interview Pro microphone is a handheld wireless microphone with onboard recording. The company
also announced an iPhone filming mount and a magnetic microphone holder for iPhone.
Jordan Harbinger has jumped back into LinkedIn and has been posting gems like how he advertises
his podcast, the benefit of preparation and rather more. Radio and podcast company Audacy
has partnered with Synthetic Voice Company 11Labs to augment its existing programming
and production workflows. In the UK, UniPodFest has been announced at Birmingham City University.
The event is on June 5th. Guests include George The Poet and Trojan Horse Affair host Hamza
Syed. Does anyone pay for podcast apps? How many subscribers has podcast app PocketCasts
got? We asked. They told us over 50,000. And fiction podcasts are fundamentally incompatible
with most podcast listening apps, writes Evo Terra, highlighting the app functions that
fiction podcasts need to work well. "We need our apps to work as well for fiction podcasts
as they do normal podcasts," he writes. Meanwhile, Wil Williams suggests that non-fiction podcasts
can learn from what they call the black sheep of podcasting. They write that crossover episodes
and promo swaps work very well, along with a wish for all to succeed. Time for some tech
stuff and Podcasting 2.0 now has a logo of its very own, which you'll see beginning
to be used across many different places, including our own podcast pages. It's a clear modern
logo and includes elements of an ear, the RSS icon, symbols typically used for podcasting
and transmission, and is built from the characters 2.0. It's very smart, and you'll find it
in our show notes and our newsletter at podnews.net. Andrew Grumit continues to work on his wherever
audio player, which can now find RSS URLs for itself. And PocketCasts 7.61 on Android and
iOS now supports superchapters from podcasting 2.0 and podlove. And in podcast news, Right
Answers Mostly has signed with AdLarge. The show co-created and hosted by Tess Bellomo and
