Ben Mathis, Chief Content Officer at Airwave, said “We have built a deep bench of leading history podcasts at Airwave, and we are excited to offer an enhanced listening experience for history lovers. We spent a year surveying thousands of listeners about their premium subscription preferences, and learned that 85% of listeners who would pay for premium content are specifically interested in bundled content within a category as opposed to a subscription to a single show or a network-wide subscription. We see this model as the future of paid podcast subscriptions.”
Airwave plans to launch other premium subscription bundles for Kids & Family, Business & Finance, Science & Tech, Arts & Entertainment, Health & Wellness, and other podcast categories, first on Apple and then on Spotify.
Subscribe to Airwave History Plus on Apple Podcasts.
