Happy Thursday, PM Family!
We’re still on a high from our biggest and best Evolutions yet, and we hope that many of you were there to join us for an epic week in Podcasting.
If you missed it, we’ve got some recaps, as well as a highlight video below. Plus we’ve got info on how to not miss it again in 2025!
We also reveal the dates and locations of our summer meetup tour kicking off next month, and we start the road to PM24 in Washington, D.C.
Let’s go!
EVENT NEWS
Evolutions 2024 was Epic
The audio world is evolving, and Evolutions captured the moment in time of that evolution last week in Los Angeles!
The video above shares some shots of the highlights that you missed if you were not there. You can also check out our IG Stories from throughout the event for even more up-close-and-personal happenings.
Finally, we’re excited to be able to share a few of the keynote talks that took place this year below.
- James Cridland of Podnews with the annual Podcast Report Card
- Tom Webster of Sounds Profitable
- Hrishikesh Hirway of Song Exploder
- Damona Hoffman of Dates & Mates
- YouTube Podcast Team w/ the Future of YouTube Podcasting
Ultimately, though, pictures and videos can’t do justice to what an Evolutions event is like. So we’re excited to share that Evolutions will be back in 2025, and Evo25 will be taking place in Chicago! Podcast Movement was last in Chicago in 2016, and we’re excited to make our return to the Windy City.

Next Stop: Washington, D.C.
The annual conclusion of Evolutions means that now all signs point to the flagship Podcast Movement event, and we’re expecting it to be our biggest one yet this August in D.C.!
Speaker submissions are open, as we look to continue to curate the best education, and bring together the podcast industry, podcast creators, and the entire podcast community for the 11th time since 2014.

JOIN US THIS AUGUST FOR THE WORLD’S LARGEST & LONGEST RUNNING PODCASTER EVENT
Every summer since 2014, Podcast Movement has gathered thousands of passionate podcasters and industry professionals from around the world under one roof to learn, grow professionally, and most importantly evolve and improve the podcast community.
WE WANT YOU TO BE THERE!
Congratulations to the Winners!
Last week, we were honored to host The Podcast Academy’s Ambies Awards before Evolutions kicked off in Los Angeles. It was an evening spent honoring all of the nominees, the winners, and celebrating podcast creators as whole!

The Infinite Dial Recap!
For the last 26 years, Edison Research’s Infinite Dial® has tracked key consumer media and technology usage among the U.S. population. We were honored to host this year’s presentation at Evolutions last week.
Edison Research Vice President Megan Lazovick presented the latest benchmark data on weekly and monthly podcast consumption, as well as insights into the evolving landscape of online audio listening, AM/FM radio engagement, smart speaker utilization, social media usage, and other digital media behaviors. Click here to download the report, or watch the full replay.
It’s been a busy several weeks for the Podcast Movement team, but there’s no stopping the podcast community now. We’ll be at NAB in Las Vegas in two weeks, and then around the country during our summer meetup tour, before culminating the summer in D.C.
We can’t wait to see you all around, and are honored to have you on this journey with us.
Grateful,
Team Podcast Movement
