We asked the questions “What trends, creative- or business-wise, are you hoping to see go away in 2023?” The question was meant to be provocative, and responses did not disappoint — it turned out to be a robust space for venting. Here, some of the best answers:
"We need to place a 12-month moratorium on TV rewatch podcasts for the sake of everyone."
“Celebrity/TV-cast chatcasts can hopefully level out? I think we have plenty.”
“We really don’t need more celebrity-anchored podcasts where the celebrities are simply interviewing their friends or, worse, subbing in as narrators when the journalists who did the work should have been the ones to host the show.”
“Companies blowing their entire podcasting budgets on flashy shows with high-profile hosts who clearly don’t want to host a podcast.”
Said one producer, “I think there’s going to be a wider reality check about numbers and how they relate to the financing of shows. Everyone in the industry knows numbers are often fudged or based off bull**** stats, and with the global economy on precarious footing, perhaps speculative capital’s role in podcasting will force some shows to close and perhaps nudge us closer to a reckoning of what a podcast really is for and how its success is measured.”
