Tom Schwab, the Founder of Interview Valet, gave the annual insight into the largest database of its kind at Podcast Movement for the fourth consecutive year. "We are a people-driven company, but we make decisions for our clients based on data," Schwab said.

Here are some of the surprising trends in Podcast Guesting

76.4% of all podcast interviews in the first half of 2022 were recorded on Zoom. Skype, which accounted for a majority of interviews pre-pandemic, now accounts for less than 2%

70% of podcasts are recorded mid-week (Tu-Th), with less than 2% occurring over the weekend. This starkly contrasts with trends seen during the COVID Restrictions of 2020-21, when hosts recorded all week long.

The mean time between

• Invitation and Recording is 40 days
• Recording and Airing is 32 days

74% of podcast interviews included video. This is up drastically from 2019 when pre-pandemic less than 1 in 5 incorporated videos.

Less than 5% of podcasts charge guests with a CPM of $25 to $150.

Data used for this study came from Interview Valet's proprietary database for episodes aired from January 1 to Jun 30, 2022. Limitations of this study include Interview Valet's focus on business, entrepreneurship, leadership, finance, investing, and health/wellness shows. All shows included were in the top 20% based on estimated downloads. This data may not be indicative of other categories or smaller shows.
