Reach
1.1
Composite of free public signals. Not a download count.
Check whether they charge. Some shows sell guest slots rather than booking them, and rates in some fields run to thousands. Nothing in a podcast feed reliably says so, so we do not claim either way. Ask before you write the pitch.
Worth a pitch. This show publishes its own contact, sits outside the national chart, is independently published, and its recent episodes show it books guests.

How this show compares to other culture & arts podcasts

Reach is a percentile among shows you could realistically get booked on, built from chart history, longevity, activity and cadence. It is not a download figure. Nobody outside a show can see those.

Common questions

Does AfterWords accept guests?

Often has guests. This show interviews people regularly. This is our reading of the show's recent episode titles, not a statement from the show itself.

How do I contact AfterWords?

Yes. AfterWords publishes a contact address in its own RSS feed, and it is the show's own inbox rather than a shared network desk. We hold it and release it to people on a plan. We never invent an address and never send a pitch on your behalf.

How often does AfterWords publish?

It has not published in a long time, so there is no current schedule. There are 35 episodes in the feed. Episodes run about 27 minutes.

Is AfterWords still active?

Probably not. The most recent episode we can see is over a year old, which usually means the show has stopped. Roughly a third of podcasts end this way without announcing it.
