Most Popular Podcasts
Best genres
The most popular genres in the past year were Culture & Society, Comedy, True crime, Music and audio commentary, followed by Education.
Main countries
The number one country for podcast feeds was unsurprisingly the service’s founding country, France. Brazil, Germany, United Kingdom and Mexico make up the remaining top five. Deezer says Britons spend the most time streaming podcasts, averaging 40 minutes per session, compared to countries like France and Brazil who prefer quick bursts of less than 10 minutes. Morning seems to be the favorite, with the most common time for listening to podcasts around the world at 10 a.m., while Germany is the exception at 11 p.m. rush hour.
