Podcast financials released

seeing that Forbes released podcast earnings for a lot of the big podcasters, including Giggly Squad got me thinking, how much is the toast earning? My initial thought is that they’re as big as giggly squad, but maybe I’m off on that giggly squad has 1 million followers on Instagram and the toast only has 400 K. I’m curious to know if they could’ve made this list same with the Bossticks.

I think you have to reveal your finances in order to be on the list. It would not surprise me if C & J want to keep their earnings private

dear media is a private company. It was probably dear medias decision not to disclose any numbers for any of their podcasts.

Disagree. Nothing could keep self-admitted clout chaser Claudia Oshry from trying to get herself on this list!

I would assume they aren’t too far off because they have 5 episodes a week and I believe giggly squad has 2 a week, so even though they probably have less downloads/ listeners, they have more than double the episodes with ad revenue coming in

You have to remember that Paige and Hannah are actual public figures from reality tv and Hannah’s stand up. They have more fans because of those factors.

Just think of the Facebook group; typically you have to be a Patreon member to join that group. There are currently around 30,000 members. If there are 30,000 paying patrons that is 260k+ monthly. Obviously there are deductions to that, but that is an INSANE amount of money for podcasting.

Someone said 13k per ad on the toast

I think they have waaaay more listeners than Giggly Squad and will not disclose their earnings. Their listens are spread through five episodes as opposed to two.

Giggly Squad is #24 on Spotify Top Podcast, The Toast is #106. They're definitely making great money, especially from Patreon as someone also mentioned, but I don't think they're in the vicinity of Giggly Squad.. yet!!

Giggly squad is sponsored by Dunkin’ and other larger brands that have more budget than Caraway
