Podnews acquires Podcast Business Journal

Podnews has acquired Podcast Business Journal, a well-respected newsletter from Streamline Publishing Inc in America.

With more than 26,500 daily subscribers, Podnews operates a free daily newsletter, with details of news, jobs and events throughout the podcast industry.

Editor, James Cridland, says, “I’m delighted to welcome Podcast Business Journal into the Podnews family. We’re pleased to continue to document the growth of the podcast industry, and maintain Podcast Business Journal’s role of independent coverage for serious podcasters.”

“As Podnews continues to grow, with our series of networking events called Podnews Live, the in-depth weekly podcast Podnews Weekly Review and other plans in the works, we see great benefit in an additional brand to focus on those in business.”

Podcast Business Journal will become a weekly newsletter, aimed at containing in-depth interviews with podcast business leaders, and will carry an overview of the week’s podcast business headlines and news.

Its first weekly edition under Podnews ownership is this Friday.

Podnews was launched in May 2017, and is a daily briefing of news and information to those in podcasting. The Podnews editorial team will expand in the coming months to support its continuing growth.

Launched by Streamline Publishing Inc in 2018, Podcast Business Journal was edited by Ed Ryan, and published by Deborah Parenti.

Crdiland has told radioinfo: “It’s good news for Australian podcasters because it means both publications will now have editing staff in the country. I’ll try to squeeze as many Australian shows in as possible.”
