Resource for finding podcasts

Postby Amandine » Wed Dec 21, 2022 3:27 am

Via reddit, I came across Chartable today. You can see the top podcast charts in every country and in a lot of categories.

https://chartable.com/charts/itunes - this is link to the iTunes charts but you can also look at the Spotify charts. I don't use iTunes or Spotify for podcasts but its very cool to be able to easily see what's out there to add to the podcast app I do use.

Some might be in English (or other languages) anyway if that is what people are actually downloading in those countries - I usually had to scroll down quite a way to find Romanian language podcasts in the Romanian charts but they were there. France, Russia, Japan - a lot more of those languages up top.

Anyway, I think I will be using this a lot.

Looks like an excellent resource, thanks for posting. There is a similar tool for youtube in case anybody isn't aware. You can search by language and/or country, and then sort by most number of subscribers. https://channelcrawler.com/

This resource is so good it's almost too good :) Will I live long enough to listen to just a sample of all these? I dunno, but this is a super, super post. Thank you.
