A bit of good news before we start: Fiction podcasts buck the trend of declining downloads. Where other categories showed an average decline of 15% and as much as a 40% (Health & Fitness), fiction podcasts showed an increase of more than 36%! I'm not so egotistical to claim all the credit for that. But... maybe just a little?
A special note of thanks to Jane and the team who make Spiked Eggs. The podcast, not some booze-infused Easter dish. They are the latest team to sign up as a Supporting Creative Shop, and I thank them for their support. I recently revamped all the supporting tiers, so please take a look and BE LIKE SPIKED EGGS!
Today's issue has more shows than ever before, so let's get into it, shall we?
