Reach

Percentile among shows you could realistically get on. 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.

What the show says about itself

Interviews with debut authors as they take their first steps into the publishing world or into a new genre. While most podcasts spotlight bestselling writers, Behind the Debut is a space dedicated to new talent—giving emerging authors the chance to share the journey, struggles, and stories behind their very first books. michellereeveswrites.substack.com
