On this week’s energetic episode of Poduty and the News, host Jeff Revilla spotlights the electrifying rise of live podcasting—from intimate block party tapings to massive, sold-out stadium events. Jeff dives into six compelling stories, showcasing how podcasters everywhere are stepping out of their studios and connecting with audiences in bold, creative, and sometimes surprising ways.

Jeff shares highlights such as:

• Podcasts raking in millions by selling out iconic arenas, like Kiltoni at Madison Square Garden, and niche shows like Acquired now pulling six-figure nights.
• Creative DIY podcast setups at conferences, exemplified by the PowerShell podcast going live from a tech conference, offering both industry insight and inspiration for indie creators.
• Apple TV’s Severance cast delighting fans with a live reunion podcast hosted by Patton Oswalt, mixing laughter with heartfelt moments.
• Sports radio and fandom colliding at Chris Long’s Green Light live taping from Atlantic City, blending football excitement with memorable fan experiences.
• Community and culture coming together at New York’s celebrated Russ and Daughters Day, featuring live podcasting among bagels, books, and local pride.
• Las Vegas’s own ‘Piecing it Together’ movie podcast, hosted live at cinematic events, deep diving into cult classics alongside film-loving audiences.
• Jeff also invites listeners to the highly anticipated Poduty Live 2025, a two-day festival aimed at giving indie podcasters a platform to shine—virtually or on-stage at the Poduty Podcast Theater in Tarentum, Pennsylvania.

If you love the intersection of live events, community, and the world of podcasts, this episode is packed with stories, inspiration, and ways to get involved.
