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

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.
