You guys, a wealth of articles are telling us that the Apple Podcasts charts are worthless, tun tun TUN
You should have stopped measuring yourself by these charts a long time ago!
These charts aren’t a reflection of general value
Stop using these charts as validation people! Not sure how else to say that

WE value the charts. WE have given them power
There’s a new head of marketing for Podcast Websites! It’s Jessica! And what she’s doing over there
Elsie is trying to set the scene, delicately about what to do with your podcast when you have an impactful life change
