Triton Digital‘s Australian Podcast Ranker has been released for May, giving insight into the Top 100 Podcasts as well as the Top 10 Publishers in Australia. The survey period was from 1 May through 31 May, 2022, as measured by Triton’s Podcast Metrics measurement service.

The Top Podcast Ranker and All-Australian Top 100 Ranker are ranked by monthly listeners, in accordance with the latest IAB Podcast Technical Measurement Guidelines.

For this reporting period, the top three publishers were ARN’s iHeartPodcast Network Australia, LiSTNR (SCA), and Audioboom.

The top three podcasts for both the Top 100 Ranker and Top 100 All-Australian Ranker included, Hamish & Andy (LiSTNR (SCA)), Casefile True Crime (Audioboom), and Liar, Liar: Melissa Caddick and the Missing Millions (Nine Publishing).

Liar, Liar: Melissa Caddick and the Missing Millions (Nine Publishing) first debuted on the Top 100 Ranker in April.

There were several debuts for the Top 100 Ranker from The Teacher’s Trial (News Corp Australia), The Front (News Corp Australia), Betrayal (ARN/iHeartMedia), Outspoken the Podcast (ARN/iHeartMedia), CounterClock (audiochuck/Stitcher), and Scamfluencers (Wondery)

For the Australian-Made Top 100 Ranker there were a few new podcasts including, The Teacher’s Trial (News Corp Australia), 5 Minute Food Fix (ARN/iHeartMedia) and Stories of Origin (Nine Digital).

The biggest riser overall was The Chaser Report, which lifted 46 places to #56. This comes after the news that The Chaser Report podcast will be adopting a live format, recorded in front of an audience at the Harold Park Hotel, Glebe in Sydney’s inner west.

The show, dubbed The Chaser Report – Live! has been commissioned for an initial run of four episodes.

Participating publishers in the Australian Ranker include Audioboom, ARN’s iHeartPodcast Network Australia, DM Podcasts, Equity Mates Media, Hidden Brain Media, LiSTNR (SCA), Motorsport Podcast Network, News Corp Australia, Nine, NOVA Entertainment, Podshape, Schwartz Media, Sports Entertainment Network (SEN), Stitcher Media, TOFOP Productions, The Chaser, Wavelength Creative, and West Australian Newspapers.
