The Joe Rogan Experience, Crime Junkie, and The Daily continue to dominate the US podcast sector as Edison Research releases its Q2 2024 rankings of the nation’s Top 50 podcasts. Outside of the top three, Call Her Daddy saw a significant rise, climbing three places to re-enter the top five, a position it hasn’t held since spring 2023.
Meanwhile, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce experienced a notable drop from Q1, descending ten places to fourteenth, likely due to the NFL off-season impact and the end of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. This is probably unwelcome news to the duo, who are reportedly seeking a nine-figure deal for the podcast.
Noteworthy newcomers include Dropouts at number 41, which has seen a rise in popularity following extensive media attention and a tour on the East Coast. Another new entry, You Should Know Podcast, debuted at number 42 after a successful tour, capturing listener interest.
