How this list is built
Shows are selected from PodSEO topic associations and matched AI recommendations. They are ordered by their average PodSEO score over records dated since seven days ago, with ties ordered by show name. The score combines podcast-platform search visibility, editorial placements, and chart performance, with adjustments for Apple listing status. AI recommendations help identify candidates; their frequency does not determine the order. Each list includes up to 100 shows with an Apple Podcasts ID and updates when regenerated.
