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

A stroll through the rich and fascinating folklore of Britain and Ireland. From music, to psychogeography, to what to do if you notice the devil following you to church. It's a long, strange trip and there are no guarantees you'll be home in time for dinner. Each episode also includes a mini-almanac for the month ahead.
