# Update podcast listing on all platforms

End-of-year update to the podcast listings across all distribution platforms. This follows the same approach as the Q2 update (task in [[25q2]]) but reflects the full year of podcast evolution: the Season 3 relaunch, the shorter episode format, updated download numbers, and any new platforms that should be added to the distribution list.

The podcast has grown significantly in 2025 and the listings should reflect the current state rather than the earlier positioning. This also presents an opportunity to experiment with platform-specific descriptions that are optimized for each platform's search algorithm.

## Acceptance criteria

- [ ] Update podcast description and metadata on all platforms (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts)
- [ ] Refresh episode artwork for the most recent season
- [ ] Add the podcast to any new platforms that have gained relevance in 2025
- [ ] Optimize keywords based on updated competitive analysis
- [ ] Verify all changes are live and appearing correctly across platforms

## Notes

- Check whether YouTube Podcasts should be added as a distribution channel. Several engineering podcasts have seen significant growth on YouTube in 2025, and the video format could open a new audience.
- The shorter episode format from the Season 3 relaunch should be highlighted in the description, as it differentiates from the longer-form competitor podcasts.
- [[person-sara-ricci]] can handle the artwork refresh since she created the current version during the [[25q2]] update.
