Follow on Google News | Daily pop culture podcast Popspotting launchedThe new show is the latest outing from a Hawaii couple that has been making media since the early days of podcasting.
By: Popspotting Ryan and Jen Ozawa, hosts of “The Transmission,” “Popspotting” “In a way we’re going back to our roots, as our very first podcast as a couple back in 2005 was to show off Jen’s pop culture prowess,” Ryan says. “After being so focused on one thing, we’re enjoying the freedom to talk about everything.” Reaching over 20,000 weekly listeners at its peak, “The Transmission” Yet Ryan and Jen infamously took a break from podcasting in 2006 when their show, which had climbed as high as #7 among all podcasts in iTunes, grew too big to handle. Wired magazine declared it a high-profile case of “podfading.” “That won’t happen again -- the successful part, I mean,” Ryan jokes. “Thankfully we made it back for the last two years of ‘LOST,’ and with ‘Popspotting,’ The shift to a daily show is a big one, as “The Transmission” “We are still getting a feel for what fits, as some listeners want more, while others want less,” Ryan says. “But as a podcast listener, I find I prefer short daily shows that I can mix and match, and am finding I sometimes never get through two-hour talkfests.” Recent “Popspotting” "Ryan and Jen make an outstanding podcasting duo,” writes Stephen Lewis in a five-star iTunes review. “If you enjoy listening to an adorable couple adroitly review pop culture and help you navigate he murky seas of entertainment, then Popspotting is for you."
