Why podcasts?

Health is hard to explain in a headline.

Podcasts give time to explain, add context, and answer the questions people really have.

Listeners hear a real person. They listen in the car, in the kitchen, and on a walk.

Understanding comes before action. No one can act on health information they cannot understand.

Accurate

It starts with the source. Every show in Health Podcast Library is reviewed before it is listed.

Accessible

Audio goes where screens can't. Anyone can browse and listen here. No account. No paywall.

Actionable

When people understand, they can act. They ask better questions and gain understanding to make better choices.

Research supports health podcasts

Healthcare professionals and caregivers both put accuracy first when evaluating medical podcasts.

Business

Your logo as a Sponsor

You may be wondering: Will my downloads increase?

Imagine building something great, and then hiding it in different places.

Sounds silly, right?

Yet that's exactly what people and organizations do when they invest in their podcast content. They hope that Apple, Spotify and YouTube will feature their episodes among the 100+ million episodes available. "Hope" isn't a strategy.

If you want to be discovered by people searching for credible health content, you should put your show in the place where people come searching for (wait for it....) credible health content.
