New to the newsletter?

Welcome! In this newsletter, we share submission opportunities, information on paid placements, and insights into Pocket Casts. We want networks and producers to be a part of the conversation. 

This newsletter, we have seven themed podcast lists open for submissions, updates on our new Discover episodes feature, and a call-out for Network Highlights!

Episode Submission Opportunities

The option to feature episodes and trailers within our Discover page is now live (thanks, dev team!), and so we will be looking for submissions for features and, in future, themed episode lists.

When submitting an episode (or trailer), please provide:

- Pocket Casts share link for your podcast or the RSS feed URL
- Episode or trailer title
- Release date if it is not yet available in the feed
- Any audio we are able to preview if the episode or trailer is not yet available

Please reply to the newsletter with any submissions for the following or highlight these within your regular content updates:
 

Featured Episodes

Like our Featured podcasts, we will now regularly be featuring specific episodes on our Discover page. We are especially keen to hear about topical episodes, but first episodes of new shows or seasons, and special episodes will also be considered.
Accepting rolling submissions.
 

Featured Trailers

We are keen to highlight trailers for upcoming and newly released shows of all genres, in a semi-regular Featured Trailers list.
Accepting rolling submissions.

Network Highlights

The Network Highlight feature on our Discover page is an opportunity to tell Pocket Casts listeners more about your network and to showcase a selection of your podcasts.

We are currently looking to fill Network Highlight spots starting on:

We are after networks that have not been previously featured in this spot, or not within the past year.

If a Highlight for your network is of interest, please reply to this newsletter for more info!
