?? Why Limiting Your Podcast Strategy to Celebrity Shows Is a Missed Opportunity ?? When it comes to podcast advertising, it’s easy to gravitate toward big-name, celebrity-hosted shows. But focusing only on star power means missing out on the essence of podcasting—authenticity, trust, and deep audience connections. At Soundrise, we believe the real magic happens when brands align with independent podcasts like Snap Judgment, Normal Gossip, and Welcome to Night Vale. These shows may not always have celebrity hosts, but they offer something even more powerful: a loyal and engaged audience that genuinely values what they hear. Want to learn why a balanced podcast strategy—including independent shows—drives deeper brand impact?

In today’s chaotic media landscape, the need for reliable, authentic information has never been greater. With social platforms rolling back fact-checking, TikTok facing bans, and X devolving into the Wild West, where can audiences turn for the truth? Podcasts are stepping in to fill the gap. At Soundrise, we’re proud to represent award-winning podcasts from PRX, Condé Nast, and Resolute Square—shows lauded for their journalistic excellence and commitment to high-quality storytelling. These trusted voices provide critical insights, moving beyond social media’s algorithm-driven noise to deliver information that’s factual, nuanced, and meaningful. In an era when over half of U.S. adults (54%) rely on social media for news, according to Pew Research Center, aligning your brand with podcasts grounded in journalistic integrity is not just impactful—it’s essential. Podcasts connect with engaged audiences who crave clarity and value truth. Discover how advertising on trusted podcasts can position your brand as part of the solution in our latest blog post: https://hubs.li/Q032H4Rv0 #TrustedVoices #PodcastAdvertising #JournalismMatters #Soundrise
