21 March 2025, 7:00 am - 49 minutes 41 secondsExtra: Annalise Nielsen, from Pacific Content and Lower Street
Annalise Nielsen shares her expert insights on YouTube's dominance in podcast consumption and why video strategy needs careful consideration rather than automatic implementation. She explains how different audiences require different approaches to content creation and platform distribution.
• YouTube is now the top platform for podcast consumption, but this doesn't mean video is right for every show
• Only about 30% of podcast consumption happens on YouTube, and much of this isn't active video watching
• Live podcasting is growing as a way to build audience interaction and deeper parasocial relationships
• Spotify's pivot to video seems disconnected from how users typically engage with the platform
• The "attention diet" concept helps creators understand where their target audience already spends time
• Podcast diversity is declining despite women controlling most purchasing decisions
• Different audience segments (executives vs. young consumers) require completely different format approaches
• Video podcast creation requires significant investment and means sacrificing some audio-only capabilitiesConnect With Us:
