In the September Triton podcast ranker released today, the ABC continues to feature more titles than any other publisher and we are the third most listened to publisher in Australia.
As we inch closer to the US general election, the ABC continues to demonstrate the strength of our news offering with ABC News Top Stories taking third place in the ranker and delivering a record high audience of 782,000, up +9% on August.
The strong result caps of an exciting month of announcements for the ABC’s podcast and audio on demand offering.
Earlier this month the ABC published the latest season of the highly anticipated true crime series Unravel: Mr Big.
Hosted by reporter Alicia Bridges, Unravel: Mr Big investigates a secretive crime boss who touts his corrupt connections to police and the courts.
This week also saw the ABC announce Jessica Radburn as our new Head of Audio on Demand.
Jessica is an internationally renowned audio executive who has worked with Wondery and Audible.
In this new role, she will lead the ABC’s audio on demand strategy including our commissioning and development processes and manage our significant podcast slate.
