Hosted by award-winning podcasters Damien St John and Ant McGinley, the Podcast Advice Show is your go-to place for the latest tips and takeaways. In this episode, we dive into what happens to your listeners' podcast data when they press play. For UK iPhone users, Apple's recent removal of Advanced Data Protection means your podcast information stored in iCloud now has less security. Together with Colin Gray, Founder at the Podcast Host and host of the PodCraft podcast, we explore how podcast apps track your listening habits, what companies do with this information, and the surprising privacy gaps in how your data is handled. And while podcasts might seem harmless, your listening choices can reveal a lot about you. Join us as we unpack the hidden world of podcast data security.
