Let's get into the show:

- How Important is Distribution?
- Spreaker’s NEW Announcement: One-Tap Podcast Distribution in Spreaker Studio on iOS
Our goal is to create the best all-in-one podcast creation app, one which is portable, flexible and works for every level of podcasters.
This year we’ve made two further steps towards achieving this goal: in February we announced our first post-production feature, allowing iOS users to edit while on-the-go, and in January we added a new navigation bar, giving users clear access to their episodes drafts, previous episodes, and stats.
Continuing this mission of creating an app tailored to podcasters’ needs, we’re super excited to announce the launch of a new update.
Be ready to enjoy our one-tap podcast distribution feature, a function we know will help to remove some of the complications and fuss out of creating a podcast!
One Tap Distribution – Minimum Effort, Maximum Results. One tap will give you (both Android and iOS users) the power to reach literally millions of new listeners by publishing to Apple Podcasts via Podcast Connect Apple ID login as we pass your feed URL to Apple Podcast Connect No Cut and Pasting, Spotify, iHeartRadio and Spreaker.

Also, once a podcast is available on Apple Podcasts it automatically becomes available on other key listening platforms such as Breaker, Pocket Casts, Overcast and more – giving you the opportunity to literally double your audience.
The importance of good distribution is equally as important as creating excellent content, that’s why we wanted to make it super straightforward for our users.
Instead of thinking ‘where should I submit my podcast?’ and the need to access individual platforms, we’ve removed one step so you can quickly access and distribute straight from one location. What’s more, the one-tap functionality, combined with our unique live record feature, means that you can literally record and distribute a podcast in seconds, wherever and whatever you’re doing.

- Submit Your Show, We’ll Take Care of the Rest
Then it’s just a matter of waiting up to 48 hours to have your show approved (note it will be available immediately on Spreaker and Spreaker Radio). As soon as your show is accepted you’ll be notified by e-mail, but you can always check in on the status via the app – that way you can see whether it’s been approved, waiting approval or rejected.

- The Round-Up
These changes are just some of the many users and visual rethinks we have planned for Spreaker Studio for the coming months.
Follow us on social to make sure you don’t miss any of the announcements and make sure you’ve got the latest version of Spreaker Studio so you can enjoy the benefits!


- Podcast Review of the Week: “History Unplugged Podcast” For history lovers who listen to podcasts, History Unplugged is the most comprehensive show of its kind. It's the only show that dedicates episodes to both interviewing experts and answering questions from its audience. First, it features a call-in show where you can ask our resident historian (Scott Rank, PhD) absolutely anything (What was it like to be a Turkish sultan with four wives and twelve concubines? If you were sent back in time, how would you kill Hitler?). Second, it features long-form interviews with best-selling authors who have written about everything. Topics include gruff World War II generals who flew with airmen on bombing raids, a war horse who gained the rank of sergeant, and presidents who gave their best speeches while drunk.

Shelf Addiction
I agree with you, there is no reason to mention where to subscribe in the episode itself. I do mention the platforms on promotional audio clips and other things that I post on social media.

Linda Irwin
I direct them to where I am at the end of the show, short and sweet. Some people prefer different platforms and might listen to you on one they might like better.
