Summer Meetup Tour is NEXT WEEK – NEW VANCOUVER LOCATION

Next week we'll be hitting the road! The PM team will be headed to the Pacific Northwest, as well as Denver, for our annual Summer Meetup Tour. Remember that our tour sponsor Mackie will be giving away prizes to attendees at all four stops. PLEASE NOTE OUR NEW VANCOUVER LOCATION.

2023 Summer Podcast Movement Meetup Tour

If you've never been to one of our meetups before, they're essentially ways to bring together local podcasters to meet each other, network, and learn from one another, when often they did not even know a local community of podcasters existed!

In other words, Podcast Movement throws the party, and everyone is invited to attend (free)! But this year, Mackie is making it even more special:

Attendees at each stop will have the opportunity to try out Mackie's

• DLZ Creator podcast mixer
• EM-99B broadcast microphones
• MC-350 headphones
• DB-200 Premium Boom Arms

PLUS one meetup attendee at each stop will go home with a pair of MC-350 Headphones… and one lucky attendee across the whole tour will win the full suite of gear listed above!

Check out these upcoming stops, and make plans to join us if you're nearby.

Podcast Industry News from Podnews

The Week in Podcasting

As we started last week, we're going to use this section to share some of the top stories from the last week, in our eyes, from our friends at Podnews and Podcast Business Journal.

• Gen Z podcast listeners discover shows through social media, according to a new study from Edison Research and SXM Media.

• Pew Research put out new data that show In the US, the most top-ranked podcasts are about true crime.

• CoHost has released a white paper about podcast analytics – detailing key metrics, measurement techniques, and industry best practices.

• Podcast Marketing Magic shares how to make the most of your good, bad, and helpful ratings and reviews

To wrap things up, we wanted to remind everyone of our Community and Event Codes of Conduct. As the online community continues to grow and evolve, and our next big in-person event gets closer, it's never a bad time to make sure that we are all respectful of one another.

With that said, we hope your week is going great, and we can't wait to be back in your inbox soon!
