Australian Podcast Ranker for August

Triton Digital’s Australian Podcast Ranker provides insight into the Top 100 Podcasts as well as the Top 10 Publishers in Australia from 1 August through 31 August, 2021. The top three podcasts in both the Top 100 Ranker and Top 100 All-Australian Ranker are Hamish & Andy (LiSTNR – SCA), Casefile True Crime (Audioboom) and Life Uncut with Brittany Hockley and Laura Byrne (ARN/iHeartMedia).

For the first time, and for all three rankers, the ranker is based on listeners instead of downloads.

In addition, for the first time, both the listener and download metrics are presented to the readers. With these changes having an important effect on the ranking, we are not showing rank changes for this edition only. Rank changes will be available again next month.

As for this month, the top three publishers for the Australian Podcast Ranker are ARN/iHeartMedia, LiSTNR (SCA) and Audioboom.
