Podcast Ad Market Collapse, Mark Maron and Acast
The hosts discuss a downturn in the podcast advertising market, noting that even top talent like Mark Maron is being used to pitch for advertisers. They contrast the "existential crisis" of ad-based models with their own "value for value" system, which relies on direct listener support rather than fluctuating corporate ad spends.
