I loved the Countdown. I was a huge Casey Kasem fan and he was the reason i wanted to do voice overs\/radio. Actis is a great host and i instantly became a fan. Fast paced, and enjoyable to listen to.<\/p><\/li>

One of my own favorite and it was so exciting to see it on the charts. But in October the show came in at #29 it came in at #25 for November and the host said it slightly went down on the charts. I think that was a mistake since the goal is to get to the top of the charts? Anyway I appreciate my favorite show being voted on the charts. Every vote counts \ud83d\ude09<\/p><\/li>

I have never listened to a podcast. I loved the Top 50 Podcast because it gives an overview in concise way. It might be a little long for some but it\u2019s good for an overview.<\/p><\/li>

For someone new to listening to podcasts this helps sift through the shows and helps me spend time listening to the quality shows that I wanna listen to. Bonus excellent production!<\/p><\/li>

I\u2019ve been working on a concept for a new podcast but didn\u2019t really know how to proceed. The \u201cHot 50 Countdown\u201d has shown me some quality productions and I\u2019m getting much clearer on my own project. Watch this space... in the near future, my podcast will be featured on the Podcast Magazjne \u201cHot 50 Countdown!\u201d Thanks folks!<\/p><\/li>

As a podcast listener and host I just love this idea and look forward to seeing this become the list to be on!!<\/p><\/li>

I love to listen to podcasts while I workout at the gym! This is a great one for learning about new products that are less well known. I am in Toastmasters International and looking forward to create my own podcast as one of my future education projects! I was feeling so sentimental and nostalgic with the whole Casey Kasem countdown style!!!<\/p><\/li>

This is a podcast that\u2019s long overdue. This is a great way of getting to know what\u2019s out there. It\u2019s like America\u2019s Top Forty for podcasts. I\u2019m happy it\u2019s here!<\/p><\/li>

I\u2019m a big fan of Podcast Magazine, and have really enjoyed the podcast so far. It\u2019s a really useful, practical way to get exposed to new and varied shows, which is just what I need for my job! Thanks for the service!<\/p><\/li>

No heated presidential controversy here\u2014The Podcast Hot 50 Countdown is music to podcast lovers\u2019 ears. Check it out..<\/p><\/li>

As an avid podcast listener, this is a great show to learn about other podcasts out there. They shed light on an array of different shows and briefly talk about what you might hear there. Love this format and the new shows I\u2019ve learned about as a result.<\/p><\/li>

As a podcast fan, and a soon to be podcaster, I\u2019m fascinated by the space. I\u2019m always looking for the best of the best and I think this will be the goto source for what\u2019s hot. Love the magazine and I\u2019m looking forward to what\u2019s coming next here!<\/p><\/li>

I follow quite a few smaller podcasts and this creates way for them to gain more traction.<\/p><\/li>

Podcasts are great way to share your stories, ideas, and grow your business. The best way to build a better podcast is to listen to great podcasters. Keep up the great work!<\/p><\/li>

I love this idea of highlighting podcasts and discovering new favorites. As a stay at home mom, listening to podcasts has become a part of my daily routine and this podcast has it all covered. \n\nWarning: there is profanity used so you may not want to listen to this when your kiddos are in earshot.<\/p><\/li>

Love the concept - what an awesome way to give smaller podcasts a way to spread their stories and be recognized!<\/p><\/li>

Fantastic idea! This is exactly what I was looking for!<\/p><\/li>

I love podcasts and fly threw a lot regularly so having this one helps me learn about new podcasts and I\u2019m all about that.<\/p><\/li>

Love the mag and the podcast. Love discovering new podcasts to check out.<\/p><\/li>

This is an amazing countdown with a great mix of indie and main stream podcasts. It\u2019s nice to see a platform really give the indie group a voice! Rob brings a n awesome energy to the show and I\u2019m excited to get to check out the hottest 50 podcast each month!\n-Kristy, Co-Host Unpredictably Us Podcast<\/p><\/li>

Love this idea and LOVE being included in November\u2019s list! What a fantastic way to highlight 50 HOT PODCASTS a month! Keep up the great work!<\/p><\/li>

I am always looking for new podcasts and this Podcast delivers. My library of titles continues to grow monthly with Top50\u2019s help. Plus Rob, the host, is very entertaining.<\/p><\/li>

Love the magazine but diggin the new podcast. The host has a great voice and I love the different sound bits for the shows on the list. Keep up the great work. Look forward to the new episodes and finding new shows to listen to.<\/p><\/li>

I found this show to be a great way to find out about new podcasts to listen to. Being a podcaster myself, it is nice to know what is popular with listeners. Keep up the great work!<\/p><\/li>

To get some great selections to listen to, try Podcast Magazine.<\/p><\/li>

I love podcast magazine and think this is such a great thing. I loved the old countdown shows. I also like the fact that this is fan voted.<\/p><\/li>

This is a very well produced show and a great way to find new podcasts. But it's a little long to listen to just to hear the show's titles and what they are about. I'm not really into the\"Top 50\" idea listening for almost an hour, but that's just me. I'd rather see the list in the magazine, assuming it's the same as on this show.\n\nAll that said, this is a great show with a lot of life and enthusiasm. The host does a great job and highlights a wide variety of choices in the podcast listening world. This provides a great service for those looking for new shows to listen to. Great job over all.<\/p><\/li>

A perfect concept and a great way to find new podcasts to listen to. They capture a wide range of genres.<\/p><\/li>

The Hot 50 countdown podcast offers the nostalgic Top 40 vibes but for discovering new podcasts. Great way to get a taste of different genres indie or main stream podcasts have to offer.<\/p><\/li>

Rob\u2019s high energy gives the listener the opportunity to find the Hottest Podcasts. I love the concept of the countdown! There are so many podcasts out, but this helps navigate finding content you want to hear. Great Job and Keep on Rocking it out!!!<\/p><\/li>

Great way to find out about new podcast, the only recommendation I would add is consider breaking the 50 up so the listener can hear an episode in a quick car ride. 50 mins can be a little long.<\/p><\/li>

Interesting to hear more about podcasters themselves and what drew them to start podcasting and to hear their stories. Excited to hear more episodes!<\/p><\/li>

If you have a podcast or just enjoy listening to podcasts you will definitely need to listen to the top 50 countdown! With the energy of the best in broadcasting and quality you come to expect you will enjoy every episode. I look forward for more to come!<\/p><\/li>

Overall the show is a good way to find out about new podcasts. Hopefully the content changes month to month, even if some pods do stay in the chart, it would be nice to change up the content and focus more on things that haven't been mentioned. \nMinor pet peeve, the latest episode, the intro music volume was very low and I turned up, meaning that when the main talking came on it was too loud.<\/p><\/li>

What a pleasant and deligtful show! Great concept. Very relevant<\/p><\/li>

I love that the work to find good new and missed Podcasts is done here and in a way I can trust to give me a fair dinkum run down on what and how well the Podcast does. It is more service than entertainment but I am very grateful.<\/p><\/li>

A great way to find the best new podcasts! These guys know what they're doing and it's an enjoyable listen.<\/p><\/li>

I am a big fan of Podcast Magazine and even bigger fan of the Hot 50 podcast. Why? In a world obsessed with celebrity and media shows, it\u2019s so important to for a platform like this to champion indie podcasts that are the heart and soul of the industry.\n\nInvaluable work, keep it up guys.<\/p><\/li>

this actuly is a great way for people to learn about podcast of all topics. But i have to say way to much like Casey Kasem. Kinda anoying. Just be yourself. unless this is?????LOL<\/p><\/li>

Loved this countdown show. Those who grew up with the Top 40 countdown on the radio will like the style of this show. Waiting for the long distant dedication... lol<\/p><\/li>

I\u2019m always on the hunt for new podcasts, but there are so many choices it can be overwhelming. That\u2019s why this podcast is awesome. The countdown is voted on by avid podcast listeners, so only the best of the best shows are featured. Thanks for helping me separate the golden wheat from the podcast chaff.<\/p><\/li>

I started my Monday morning listening to all three first podcasts! I love Rob\u2019s voice snd the energy about the podcasts on the list!! I am also impressed by the way he weaves in information about his podcast, information about voting, and the Hot 50 urls. i was surprised how much the list changed from Sep to Oct. I enjoy light crime shows on British tv, but was not inclined to try crime podcasts, but both months there were several podcasts Rob mentioned that sounded really interesting. I am not used to podcasts yet, I don\u2019t think to get my information from them, I am from the phone with cords and written information sources generation... but I heard podcasts described and samples that sounded interesting! I did listen to some podcasts on a recent road trip so there is hope, even for me to find some favorites and try new podcasts! Thank you Steve and Rob for being a source of new and worthy podcasts to try!<\/p><\/li>

Rob\u2019s delivery takes me back to growing up in the 80s and 90s waiting to hear my favorite band\u2019s song higher than it was last week. But now that my taste in audio has morphed into spoken word, an AT40 for podcasts is something I never knew I needed. This show just might solve podcasting\u2019s discovery problem.<\/p><\/li>

This is a good way to learn about new podcasts to check out - thanks!<\/p><\/li>

I love this idea and it shows just how many podcasts there are, but I wonder if a \u201cTop 50\u201d is too many at a time. It\u2019s difficult to stay totally tuned in with so much info to process at one time. Sharing a bit more about fewer podcasts at a time might be more digestible. I\u2019ve listened and will keep listening to give the show a real chance.<\/p><\/li>

I love this show! It\u2019s a bit throwback to Casey Kasem while getting listeners all caught up on the latest, hippest, best podcasts of TODAY! It could use a female co-host for a bit of back and forth banter to keep it lively. With that little tweak, it\u2019s an out-of-the-ballpark 5\/5!<\/p><\/li>

Definitely has the style of Kassam\u2019s top 100. Easy to listen to and provide enough detail to tease a look at the listed Podcasts.<\/p><\/li>

A Great way to find new podcasts!<\/p><\/li>

What a great concept. A top 50 countdown for podcasts. LOVE it! \nSubscribed!\n\nEric Musick, Host of The Subscription Box Show.<\/p><\/li>

I am a huge supporter of indie podcasts and this is a great way to find new ones. Subscribe and discover those hard working podcasters.<\/p><\/li>

I've always like the countdown shows. This one packs a lot in and it is a bit overwhelming. I think it would be helpful to break up the countdown with more audio clips that offer a flavor of why the podcast was selected. That might help retain listeneres for the duration of the show. People may skip the podcasts in the middle and go straight to the top 10. I do hope that World Footprints finds its way on this list at some point.<\/p><\/li>

I listen to a lot of podcasts but often struggle to find new awesome shows to listen to. I\u2019ve already found 4 new shows I\u2019m going to immediately start listening to. Really loving the Countdown!<\/p><\/li>

I do appreciate that the Hot 50 includes independent podcasts along side some of the major podcasts. Looking forward to checking out the list via audio.<\/p><\/li>

Love this podcast<\/p><\/li>

I am so excited to jump into this podcast.<\/p><\/li>

They do great reviews and the quality of the podcast itself is stellar<\/p><\/li>

I love this show, I don\u2019t have a ton of time to browse podcasts that miiight be good, so I love hearing about some highlighted popular podcasts and know ahead of time if it\u2019s something I\u2019d get value from or not. Also in the process, I find podcasts I probably wouldn\u2019t have found otherwise!<\/p><\/li>

I have always loved countdown type shows because I love music so much. I love this show because I love podcasts so much. I thought that I knew about all of the great podcasts to listen to, I have discovered so many more since I started listening to the Hot 50 countdown. I love how the show moves quickly; the high energy makes it fun to listen. I have listened to all three episodes, and I loved them. I was trying to place the sexy voice of the host. His voice seemed very familiar. So I googled his name to discover that I listen to 'Rob Actis\" all the time. He is the narrator for The Miracle Morning audiobook. Great Job!<\/p><\/li>

I can\u2019t think of anyone better to do the countdown. Love his voice! Thanks for keeping us up on the greatest podcasts out there!<\/p><\/li>

Love what Podcast Magazine has done here. Brings back memories of America\u2019s Top 40. Rob\u2019s voice is great. The show is very entertaining and I\u2019m finding all kinds of new shows to listen to.<\/p><\/li>

I love the Hot 50 Countdown! I remember growing up listening to Casey Kasem and the American Top 40... this is equally good! I've been introduced to so many podcasts I didn't even know existed and I love that the Countdown is determined by podcast fan votes, not ratings, reviews, subscribes or downloads. Thank you Podcast Magazine for leveling the playing field for ALL podcasters! (And, Rob is a perfect host for this!)<\/p><\/li>

I love everything about this. Very informative and creative. I can\u2019t wait to listen to some of these podcast. Thank YOU for sharing this with the world. Plus that voice... its super sexy! Keep them coming!<\/p><\/li>

As a kid, I loved listening to Casey Kasem countdown the Top 40 on the weekends and it\u2019s so much fun to see this revised for podcasts. If you\u2019re looking for a new podcast fave, this podcast is perfect<\/p><\/li>

Podcast Magazine has a bit here featuring podcasters votes on by fans. Well worth the time!<\/p><\/li>

Love the host\u2019s voice. Reminds me of the Casey Kaseem countdowns. Interesting how the Hot 50 is compiled. Thanks for doing this show.<\/p><\/li>

Very entertaining, and has already turned me on to new podcasts I can\u2019t wait to check out.<\/p><\/li>

Love this show! Love this magazine! Love the voice of the host! So exciting to have this resource.<\/p><\/li>

I love this! This is a great! It\u2019s a way to shine light on to so many podcasters.
