"The crushing emergence of AI and the shift towards video by a large part of the industry have created a significant cocktail of two things that don't interest me in the slightest", writes Pablo Fisher; but he adds "Escucha Podcast was a beautiful project, the loveliest and best thing I've done in my professional life. It led me to meet incredible people, to listen to the best minutes of audio in our language (also the worst; the selection task hasn't been easy)." * Goalhanger has licensed its fiction podcast Sherlock & Co [https://podnews.net/podcast/iatxp] to BBC Sounds.

Aimed at editors and studios, the tool doesn't "nudge clients towards DIY tools or AI editing", it says - wonder who they could possibly mean... the company, which hails from Canada, is looking for beta testers - there's a free trial on the website. * More and more people are using podcast app Overcast. Buzzsprout's platform stats for June [https://www.buzzsprout.com/stats?date=2026-06-01&utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-07-02] show that podcast consumption by Overcast has increased by +28% year-on-year. Most other apps are relatively static - except Spotify, which shows a slump of -26%. (Some of this could be attributed to Spotify video, which is hosted by Spotify themselves). "Web browsers" are up by 4.4%. * Transistor's stats [https://transistor.fm/global-stats/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-07-02], meanwhile - archived here [https://livewire.io/transistor-stats-visualized/?utm_source=podnews.net&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=podnews.net%3A2026-07-02] - also show a 22% increase in Overcast year-on-year, and a drop for Spotify of -40%.
