The truth about binge-dropping your podcast (and why weekly releases win if you want real growth)

Description

Should you release all your podcast episodes at once or drip them out weekly?

Binge-dropping feels efficient but it can seriously stunt your podcast audience growth.

In this episode, I break down why releasing everything in one go almost always performs worse than a steady weekly rollout and the rare situations where a binge drop does make sense.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why binge releases kill your biggest growth engine: consistency
  • How weekly drops boost discoverability, auto-downloads and listener trust
  • Why “Why now?” matters when promoting your show
  • When it’s actually fine to release everything at once
  • The question to ask yourself before choosing a release strategy
