It's funny how split podcast genres are. Some shows require huge budgets, travel, audio design, and months of research, and then they fare worse than 3 funny white dudes talking extemporaneously every week. It's also baffling how much money got pumped into companies like Gimlet without a revenue strategy beyond Casper mattresses and the other typical ads.
Altogether, I think people who enjoy the long-form productions should be excited by this additional attention, but anyone who has been listening to off-the-cuff shows (like me) will have to get used to the shifting ecosystem. Hopefully content creators can adapt to the shift towards "Quality over quantity"
I'd like to hope everyone gets a paycheck equal to their worth in the new world of podcasting, but I'm more realistic than that...
