My Overcast Podcast Listening Stats for 2024

Overcast (finally) introduced a wrapped”-style listening stats round-up feature a couple of months ago. With it, you can easily share the shows that you spent the most time listening to in the last year/month/day. Kudos to Marco Arment for making this feature available year-round and on-demand, rather than for just a few weeks in December like most other apps.

Anyway, here were the shows I listened to the most hours of in 2024.

Podcast app visualization displays nine podcast covers with listening hours beneath each. Podcasts include ATP (107 hours), The Vergecast (73 hours), Upgrade+ (69 hours), Connected Pro (58 hours), More Power Users (55 hours), The Talk Show (41 hours), Apple News Today (39 hours), Reconcilable Differences (38 hours), and AppStories+ (35 hours). Total listening time is 518 hours in Overcast.
Yeah…I listen to a lot of tech shows. It’s my vice.

Also notable, Overcast’s Smart Speed feature, which cuts out silences to speed things up without adjusting the actual speaking rate, has saved me 1,181 hours in the 10+ years I’ve been using it. Wow!

[Thanks to Austin White for reminding me that I still needed to share this!]
