Bonjour.
I’m Lauren Passell, the founder of Tink Media, a podcast marketing and PR company that helps shows grow. I teach podcast growth on stages and in classrooms all over the world.
But before I started working in the podcast industry (at my desk in book publishing I was a huge listener. I started Podcast the Newsletter to try to convince all my family and friends they should start listening, too.
The FAQ Section Nobody Asked For
Bonjour. Today is Monday, March 2, 2026. I was at On-Air Fest last week so my listening was down, my writing about podcasts was down. You can read about all that here:
Podcast the Newsletter is my weekly list of the audio stuff that has me talking. I occasionally interview people and am always up for collaborations. (If you’re a podcaster, I’d love to run an ad for you in exchange for a promo swap. Email me lauren@tinkmedia.co if that interests you.)
My other newsletters are Podcast Marketing Magic and I write Podcasts We Text About with Arielle Nissenblatt🎧 .
I love you!
