Ever wondered what's lurking in your podcast stats? This week, we tackle a mysterious surge in ThinkBot downloads that has creators scratching their heads. When this web crawler suddenly outpaces even Apple Podcasts in your analytics, it's time to investigate—and we'll walk you through exactly what to do when bots inflate your numbers.
For Android users struggling to find their perfect podcast companion, we compare the top apps with Pocket Casts emerging as our favorite for its seamless cross-device synchronization. Whether you're listening on your phone, tablet, or desktop, we explain how to create the most satisfying listening experience without getting lost between devices.
