FROM THE DESK OF JEFF SANDERS

An Audio Tour Through America's Top-Ranked Podcasts

Pew Research Center does it again! They recently posted an article that was both informative and well done (take into account the parallax scrolling). It's a great combo between informative copy and actual soundbyte examples.

Here's a quick preview of what you'll see. The most popular podcast topics should come as very little surprise.

  • ⚖️ 24% True Crime
  • 🗳️ 10% Politics and Government
  • ⭐ 9% Entertainment, Pop Culture and the Arts
  • 💗 8% Self-Help and Relationships

WAVVE DESIGN OF THE WEEK

A picture says 1,000 words. At least here it does. Copy is as minimal as it gets in this design, and that's OK. Anita's bright, wide smile pairs perfectly with the Joyful Journey podcast title. I don't really need any more detail than that. Don't feel the need to overdo the copy if you have an image that conveys a strong message.
