Want to learn how to edit your own content using Descript? https://www.bambyacademy.com/learndescript Here at Bamby Media, we’ve been producing podcasts for clients for almost a decade and I’d say at this point we’ve worked with almost every podcast hosting platform out there. From Omnystudio to Simplecast, Podbean, Libsyn, Blubrry, Acast there is no shortage of hosts. But do we really need that many podcast hosts? Don’t they all largely do the same thing? The short answer is yes, they do all largely have the same basic functions. But I do feel that not all podcast hosting platforms are created equally. There are definite advantages to some hosts over others, and after years of experience in this space, there are two hosts that I’ve found to be the standouts in the field. Buzzsprout and Captivate. I’m going to give you the breakdown as to why I’ve chosen these two, and who ultimately wins in a battle between the two.
