The feed says "en" without a region, so the country is unknown.

Not established
No .uk domain and no region in the feed language. Apple reports the storefront, not the show, so we do not guess.
Reach
96
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.

How this show compares to other culture & arts podcasts

On every measure we hold, this show sits close to the middle of its category. That is not a criticism: an ordinary show with a real audience and a published contact is exactly what a first booking usually looks like.

Measured against every culture & arts podcast in the directory that has published in the last year.

What the show says about itself

Sean Platt, Johnny B. Truant, and David W. Wright—the trio behind the legendary Self-Publishing Podcast —are back. But the world of storytelling has changed, and so have they. It's the same three voices you know, talking about the craft and commerce of storytelling — from the work we're creating to the TV and movies we can't stop thinking about. Shop talk for artists playing the long game in a creative world that never slows down. If you've been here since the early days, welcome back. If you're new, pull up a chair. You're listening to The Smarter Artist Show.
