Description

It’s news day, and we’re bringing you the latest Podcast industry headlines.

We also take a look at how AI is shaping live audio with Elgato’s Wavelink 2.0, why music publishers are pressuring Spotify to remove podcasts with unlicensed music, and what these changes mean for creators. We also share details on upcoming podcasting events like Crea8tive Con and Podcast Movement Evolutions and celebrate awards that recognize women in podcasting and creators over 50
