About Podcast Network Insights: Understanding the Business of Podcast "Networks"

Podcast Network Insights explores the evolving world of podcast networks, however they define themselves today. Through candid conversations with founders, operators, and creators, we uncover how podcast networks make money, how they grow shows, and how podcasters can decide whether to join, leave, or even start a podcast network of their own. For podcasters, it’s a resource for understanding what to look for when joining a network and how to find a podcast network that aligns with your goals. For networks and media companies, it’s a space to reflect on how they differentiate, evolve, and deliver value. For the industry as a whole, it’s a front-row seat to the transformation of what “network” and even “podcast” mean in today’s audio landscape. Hosted by Greg Wasserman, a relationship-driven podcast professional who’s worked across media sales, podcast platforms, and creator tools, and now serving as Head of Relationships at RSS.com (http://RSS.com), the show brings curiosity and connection to the people shaping how creators collaborate and thrive. Available everywhere you listen to podcasts, Podcast Network Insights embraces the openness and accessibility of RSS, because conversations about the podcast industry should live where podcasts themselves do, through open RSS feeds. Whether you’re a network owner, a creator considering joining a network, a production agency thinking about starting a network or partnering with one, control marketing dollars and interested in podcasting, or simply curious about how the industry is evolving, this show is your go-to resource for the business, relationships, and strategies that power podcast networks. ---- Systems, Sponsors, and Partners: Hosted with RSS.com Podcast Hosting (https://rss.com/?via=9f060f) Produced by Stories & Strategies (https://storiesandstrategies.ca/) Content Repurposed with Castmagic (https://get.castmagic.io/greg) Podcast Project Management with Northflow (https://app.northflow.io/sign-up?via=greg) ---- As someone who believes Life is about Time & Relationships, you never know where one conversation may lead, reach out and connect with Greg to open a conversation: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregwasserman (https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregwasserman/) or reach out at greg.wasserman@rss.com.

How Listener-Supported Monetization Works for a Podcast Network

Published 8 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] So it's very much a system that supports what it is that each host is doing, right? In addition, of course, our monetization structure. It's no secret that most Black hosted shows are not generating billions of dollars, right? And so how do you create something where they're able to really monetize where they are from the time that they start their show? And so when building the Alive Podcast Network, I was very intentional with building our own tech stack so that we can have that differentiator where anytime somebody subscribes to the network because of any show, that show automatically gets 50% of that individual's monthly subscription fee.
