  • #364 | The Belief You Must Shatter Today To Finally Start Generating Income From Your Podcast
    Jan 19 2026

    Want to grow to 5-10k monthly downloads and monetize podcast without replying on social media, paid promotions or high profile guests? Click here.

    Ever wonder why your podcast gets listens but not clients, sales, or real income?

    If you’ve been putting in years of effort, publishing solid episodes, and still feel invisible, this episode explains exactly why podcast growth and podcast monetization feel so random — and why they’re not supposed to be. Most podcasters unknowingly design their shows in a way that makes growth accidental and income unpredictable.

    In this episode, you’ll learn how successful podcasters intentionally engineer podcast growth, how they guide listeners toward monetization, and why podcast SEO is the missing piece that determines whether your show gets discovered at all.

    By listening, you’ll discover how to:

    1. Eliminate randomness from podcast monetization by designing a clear listener-to-client journey
    2. Attract the right audience by aligning your podcast growth strategy with a specific listener and outcome
    3. Get discovered consistently using podcast SEO so new listeners can actually find your show

    If you’re done guessing, tired of stagnant downloads, and ready to build podcast growth that leads to real podcast monetization, this episode will give you the clarity and system you’ve been missing.

  • #362 | The Ugly Truth Behind Why 99% of Podcasts Never Go Full-Time
    Jan 12 2026

    Are you telling yourself things are “fine” while your podcast stays stuck, unprofitable, and going nowhere?

    If you want real podcast growth, true podcast monetization, and the freedom of a full-time podcast, this episode forces an uncomfortable but necessary conversation. Many podcasters believe they’re doing everything right — staying consistent, enjoying the process, keeping things “safe.” But beneath the surface, denial, comfort, and rationalization are quietly killing momentum, urgency, and income.

    In this episode, Anthony and Taig unpack the hidden psychology that keeps podcasters trapped in limbo — working jobs they’re misaligned with while their podcast never becomes the business they say they want.

    You’ll discover:

    1. Why comfort and “good enough” circumstances destroy podcast growth faster than bad strategy
    2. How denial and rationalization block podcast monetization — even when effort feels high
    3. The mindset shift required to turn a podcast from a side project into a full-time podcast

    If you’re serious about podcast growth, podcast monetization, and finally building a full-time podcast — this episode may be the wake-up call you’ve been avoiding.

    Dec 29 2025

    Podcast Statistics & Industry Trends 2025, which can be found here: https://www.thepodcasthost.com/listening/podcast-industry-stats/

    What if everything you’ve been told about podcast growth, video, and monetization heading into 2026 is only half true?

    Right now, podcasters are overwhelmed by pressure to add video, fear that audio is dying, and uncertainty around whether podcasting is even worth the effort anymore. In this episode, Taig O'Shea and Anthony Nwaneri break down real-world data and firsthand client results to cut through the noise and show you what’s actually happening in podcasting — and where the real opportunity lies.

    By listening, you’ll discover:

    1. Why audio podcasting is still dominant — and what the data really says about YouTube vs audio listening.
    2. How fewer active podcasts + more listeners creates a massive growth advantage in 2026.
    3. What truly drives podcast revenue, including how small, niche shows are generating five figures a month without huge download numbers.

    If you want clarity, confidence, and a smarter strategy for growing and monetizing your podcast in 2026, listen to this episode now and recalibrate your approach with real data, not internet hype.
