Commercial Radio & Audio (CRA), in partnership with Triton Digital, has released the August results for the Australian Podcast Ranker<\/strong>. The Ranker is the country\u2019s only official, third-party verified podcast measurement system, governed by a cross-industry Steering Committee and backed by strong collaboration across commercial, independent, and non-commercial publishers. It sets the benchmark for podcast data in Australia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lizzie Young, CEO of CRA said: \u201cThe Australian Podcast Ranker doesn\u2019t just measure audiences – it identifies the communities that directly influence consumer decisions, providing advertisers with insights to turn listeners into loyal customers.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who\u2019s Listening, What\u2019s Trending?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Father\u2019s Day has come and gone, but men\u2019s podcast listening paints a clearer picture of what they may value most.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demos+ data reveals of all males aged 25-54, 60% listen to Sports podcasts, 53% Technology podcasts, and 51% Leisure podcasts. While Science (45%) and Music (46%) complete their top five genres. With 81.4% employed full-time during peak earning years, these consumers combine established purchasing power with active content exploration across five distinct categories. This demographic’s podcast library directly predicts purchase intent, with media consumption signalling exactly which products resonate.[i]<\/a> <\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
