339 - TIME’s Top Creators, Anthropic’s AI MCP & Podcast Data
About this episode
Did you know nearly half of TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Influential Creators are podcasters? In this morning’s News Edition, we cover who made the list and what it says about podcasting’s growing cultural power. We also spotlight new tools for podcasters, including Buzzsprout’s AI-powered audio enhancement features and MowPod’s expanded chart tracking for Spotify and Apple. We wrap with a look at Age of Audio, a new documentary capturing the ups and downs of indie podcasting. Podcasting isn’t merely growing; it’s changing the future and how we tell stories.
