Summary
YouTube has launched a chart to track the 100 most popular podcasts in the US, which will be updated weekly, revealing the podcasts that gather the most views on the platform.
During the week beginning 5 May, The Joe Rogan Experience was the most popular podcast on the platform, followed by Kill Tony, Rotten Mango and 48 Hours.
YouTube has been increasingly pushing its podcast offerings in recent years, aiming to challenge Spotify’s dominance in the podcast space.
The video platform said that more than 1 billion people tune into podcasts on YouTube each month, compared to 100 million monthly listeners reported by Spotify last year.
YouTube plans to add new features to the chart and expand it to more regions in future.
