Country Radio Broadcasters will present the next installment of its recently launched CRS360 webinar series on Tuesday, August 27 at 1 p.m. (CDT), with an episode titled “Country Radio’s Podcasting Opportunity.”
Edison Research SVP and CRS veteran Tom Webster (pictured) will help attendees better understand the unique relationship between Country radio, its listeners, and their community, and how Country radio is positioned to be something more in podcasting than just repurposed broadcast content.
“The topic of podcasting was on the minds of our entire agenda committee when they met in June to plan CRS 2020,” said CRS Executive Director, RJ Curtis. “With one third of Americans over the age of 12 having listened to a podcast, we know this platform is rapidly growing; helping radio retain current listeners, and possibly draw new ones to our format is exactly the kind of discussion CRS should be facilitating, and we’re thrilled to have Tom Webster share his insights.”
The August edition of CRS360 is a prequel to another session on the topic of podcasting, titled, “In Pod We Trust,” planned for CRS 2020, which will be held Wednesday, February 19 – Friday, February 21 at the Omni Hotel in Nashville.
