Podcast Statistics etc

I’ve read your helpful thread on podcasting, especially the idea of having a separate ‘blog’ for my podcasts (I have Premium) - and I understand how to submit to Apple, directories etc.

Getting stats/metrics on listens etc are of course very helpful (like you get on podcast specific platforms) - is there any way to get stats using micro.blog?

Thanks!

I’ve already answered Oliver’s question over email, but I’m posting it here as well in case anyone else comes across this thread.

No, there aren’t built-in stats like that, so you’ll need to look into third-party solutions. Apple Podcasts Connect provides analytics, for example, or you can check out the solution Chris describes here.
