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

Real stories from founders and operators on how companies actually get built — from idea to scale and exit. Through interviews, talks and discussions, the ideaSpace Podcast explores the reality of building a business: the decisions, trade-offs, failures and successes. Our Start-up Stories episodes focus on founder journeys, while Business Basics dives into specific topics - from sales and hiring to fundraising and product. Recorded within ideaSpace, the University of Cambridge’s startup community, where founders support each other to build high-impact ventures.
