We ignore download numbers entirely.
Every other chart ranks podcasts by popularity. We rank 78 B2B podcasts by substance - we transcribe, consume and score real episodes on how much a B2B operator would actually learn. Insight density, originality, guest caliber, specificity, conversational craft. Nothing else.
Real episodes, transcribed
We transcribe and read actual episodes - never guessing from titles or download charts.
Scored on five dimensions
Insight, originality, guest caliber, specificity, and conversational craft - 0 to 100.
Independent & unbuyable
No ads, no pay-to-play. The only way up the chart is better conversations.
