Listenership for podcasts is at an all time high, according to Edison research. 112 million people reported having listened to a podcast. Whether it's at home, on their commute, as they work, or at the gym, podcast listeners are consuming an average of 5 episodes per week. As people start to experience "screen fatigue" at work and at home, listening to news stories has become a welcome alternative to reading.
"We're excited to offer SpokenEditions to our millions of iHeartRadio listeners," said iHeartRadio Senior VP/Podcasting Chris Peterson. "We are committed to providing a robust all-in-one listening experience for our users and by teaming up with SpokenLayer, it allows us to bring innovative new content to iHeartRadio that we know our users will love."
