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

Welcome to The Hybrid — where cannabis policy, politics, and pop culture collide. Hosted by former state regulators Shawn Collins (MA) and Erik Gundersen (ME), this podcast brings insider perspective to the evolving world of cannabis: from regulatory rollouts and federal rescheduling to cultural trends shaping the industry’s next era. Every episode, Shawn and Erik unpack the forces defining modern cannabis — law, markets, and media — with sharp insight, humor, and experience from the inside. 🎙️ Follow @TheHybridPod on Instagram for exclusive clips and behind-the-scenes moments.
