In this episode of The MK Report, Steffany Graham breaks down some of the biggest shifts happening across podcasting and the creator economy, including Netflix's growing investment in podcasts, Goalhanger selling 26,000 tickets to a live podcast festival, Substack's rise as an owned-audience platform, YouTube's changing view metrics, and its crackdown on mass-produced AI content.

Together, these stories point toward one major shift: media is becoming infrastructure for attention, trust, community, and revenue.

Instead of asking how to monetize a podcast, creators should begin asking a much bigger question: What business can this audience support?

From memberships and live events to products, services, communities, partnerships, and licensing, the opportunity is increasingly about building an ecosystem around the audience rather than depending entirely on views, algorithms, or advertising.

...]]> Merakairos Buzzsprout-19811282 Wed, 02 Sep 2026 08:00:00 -0700 605 full false Podcast Metrics Are Changing: What the AMP Accords Mean for Creators | The MK Report Podcast Metrics Are Changing: What the AMP Accords Mean for Creators | The MK Report In this episode of The MK Report, Christian and Steffany break down the AMP Accords, the Alliance for Measurement in Podcasting's proposed standards for creating a common language around podcast measurement—and what the shift from downloads, streams, and views toward actual consumption could mean for podcasters, creators, advertisers, and brands.

If platforms begin placing greater emphasis on plays, unique audiences, ad impressions, watch time, and real engagement, creators may need to rethink what they're optimizing their content for.

Because the future of podcasting may not belong to whoever generates the most views.

It may belong to whoever can hold attention the longest.

Christian also shares why service professionals may be over-indexed on short-form content while dramatically underutilizing long-form media to build trust, authority, and demand.

Later in the episode, we take you inside The MK ecosystem with updates from The MK LAB, upcoming events, Pod Pops, studio productions, and the upcoming Content Scaling Workshop.

If you're a founder, creator, podcaster, business owner, or professional building your brand through content, subscribe to The MK Report for creator economy insights, podcast news, business strategy, and updates from across the Merakairos ecosystem.

Keep making.
Keep creating.
Keep showing up with purpose.
