Some research has investigated motivations of podcasters and listeners using quantitive methods. However, little is known about perspectives of podcast users and producers with respect to technological and cultural changes in the medium. This dissertation outlines findings from interviews conducted with podcast users and a podcast producer that lays out thoughts about the medium on themes like technology, production, distribution etc. Page !3 of !79 Introduction Podcasting, an automated subscription-based system of recorded audio/video content powered by the internet, finds its origins in the early 2000s and witnessed wide adoption in 2005. This makes podcasting older than Facebook or Twitter, two very popular products of the internet age. Although, podcasting has not been able to replicate the same success as those social networking sites, it has had a few pivotal moments that left an indelible impact on the digital media industry. -

Today’s podcasts are a major forum for the exchange of ideas, and many are calling this time the “renaissance of podcasting.” Born out of the marriage of public radio and the internet, podcasting has adapted to follow modern consumption patterns and the high demand for readily accessible entertainment. Podcasts are making New York City their home. The density of advertising firms, technology companies, major brands, digital media organizations, and talent has established New York City as the epicenter of the burgeoning podcast industry. New York City is home to the fastest growing podcast startups, which have doubled, tripled, and quadrupled their size in the past several years – in employment, office space, and listenership. New York City’s podcast networks are growing rapidly, reflecting the huge national audience of 42 million weekly listeners. Employment at the top New York City podcast networks has increased over the past several years, from about 450 people in 2015 to about 600 people in early 2017. -
