Can you imagine receiving a bill for using an image without a license? James doesn't have to imagine it, and he’s here to share his harrowing copyright enforcement encounter that could have major implications for all podcast directories globally. We also dare to dissect the recent turmoil at Spotify, a giant in the podcasting industry, grappling with workforce layoffs and the shuttering of popular podcasts. 

Special guest, Rachael King, CEO of Pod People, gives us an inside look at her journey from starting her company to securing high-profile clients such as HBO and Netflix, and underlines the importance of social media in promoting podcasts. Ever wondered how to measure success in podcasting? We navigate the tricky world of podcast marketing and measurement, shedding light on the rise of new services and metrics that matter in this industry. 

Finally, we tackle link management tools for podcasts, putting a spotlight on LinkFire, and introducing you to Podgagement, a platform designed to turbo-boost podcast growth. Hear straight from Daniel J Lewis, the creator of Podgagement, about the exciting features of his newly launched platform. We wrap it all up by casting an eye over recent podcasting news and updates, offering reflections on the state of the industry, the challenges we face, and the opportunities that are ripe for the picking. Join us for an enlightening journey through the podcasting universe!
