Edison Research announces the Top 25 Podcasts in the UK based on reach for Q2 2024 among weekly podcast listeners age 15+. 

Remaining in the same rank order in the Top Three are The Joe Rogan Experience, The Diary of a CEO with Steven Bartlett, and Sh**ged Married Annoyed

New to the Top 10 for the first time is Help I Sexted My Boss. The show gained significant media attention thanks to its tour and launch of its own dinner party game, Help I Sexted My Boss: The Official Party Game

Making their debuts in the Top 25: The Overlap with Gary Neville climbed to the #24 spot following the launch of its new season in late March. The Rest is Entertainment quickly gained momentum after its late November 2023 launch, securing the #17 spot. Meanwhile, Just One Thing – with Michael Mosley earned the #20 spot, with the unfinished TV version of the series set to be released by the BBC following the passing of host Michael Mosley. Call Her Daddy continues to rise in popularity, reaching the #22 spot, reflecting Alex Cooper’s growing influence beyond the U.S.

Edison Podcast Metrics is unique in that it is not dependent on podcast download data and does not require podcast networks to opt into its service. At least 2,000 weekly podcast listeners in the UK are surveyed each quarter for the service, and listening behavior is collected regardless of listening platform. The same methodology is being employed in the UK as is used in the U.S.  

Data from Edison Podcast Metrics UK provides show-level information on the top podcasts in the UK. Subscribers can analyze demographics, psychographics and purchase-behavior information of weekly podcast listeners. The first Top Podcast Shows ranker in the U.S. was released by Edison Research in November 2019; the company has been tracking podcast consumption in the aggregate since 2006.
