How many people are watching podcasts on Netflix?

From our free daily newsletter, the latest from podnews. net with Podscribe. How are podcasts doing on Netflix? Independent measurement company Samber TV has posted data on Netflix podcasts, including a podcast ranker. The company says that 13% of Netflix households, that's 10 million of them, watched at least one cumulative minute of a Netflix podcast in the first quarter of the year. There's really only one runaway success on Netflix for now. It's The Breakfast Club, which is responsible for 40% of all podcast views on the platform and has three times the views of the number two title, a Netflix companion podcast for Bridgetton. Almost half of Breakfast Club viewers watch the show within 48 hours of an episode being released. Now, a note of caution on the numbers, though. 13% is a figure spanning 3 months rather than the usual 1 month period. The company only monitors smart TVs and not phones. And it doesn't suggest that these people watched a podcast for at least a minute. It just suggests that in total they've watched at least a minute of podcasts in a 3month period.
