Listen up, darlings—Ms. Rizzlerina is here to spill the tea and sprinkle a little stardust on your earbuds, because the podcast palace just got a glitzy glow-up worth $100 million!
That’s right, my fabulous fame-chasers—Spotify’s podcasters are livin’ large and cashin’ in. According to the latest buzz hotter than a Hollywood scandal, podcasts have raked in a jaw-dropping $100 million from Spotify this year alone. Let me repeat that: one-hundred-mil-li-on. That’s a whole lotta coin for chattin’ into a mic in hoodie-chic from the comfort of your own couch. Oh, to be influential and unscripted!
Now, you know me—I live for a good list, especially when it’s poppin’ with pop culture icons and audio royalty. So naturally, I tracked down the crown jewels of the podcast realm. Drumroll and a diva twirl, please—the top three Spotify podcasts in the U.S. are out and trust me, you’ll want to hear this loud and proud in those AirPods.
✨ No. 1: “The Joe Rogan Experience”
Love it or side-eye it, JoJo is still sittin’ pretty at the top like the king of controversial chat. Whether he’s diving into aliens, ancient civilizations, or eyebrow-raising hot takes, he owns the mic—and clearly, the checkbook. Spotify’s $100 million signing deal with Rogan put him on top, and babe, he’s been laughing all the way to the crypto bank.
💋 No. 2: “Call Her Daddy”
Oh honey, Alex Cooper didn’t just call us—she called the whole internet and made it her stage. With her fearless, unfiltered takes on dating drama, therapy, taboo talk, and spicy celeb sit-downs, she’s taken girl talk to a whole new multimedia mansion. And let’s not forget that little $60 million contract? Iconic behavior.
🔥 No. 3: “Crime Junkie”
Who said murder mysteries couldn’t be chic? Ashley Flowers and Brit Prawat slay the true crime genre with their rapid-fire storytelling, chilling cases, and dark glamour. Their loyal fanbase? As committed as a Carrie Bradshaw closet is to couture. These ladies are turning cold cases into cold cash, and I am OBSESSED.
So, what’s the real headline here, glitter gang? Podcasts aren’t just background noise for your Pilates class anymore—they’re full-blown empires. From conspiracy theorists to cool-girl wellness queens to investigative angels of justice—we’re living in the era of the audio icon.
And between celeb guests, viral TikTok rants, and major bag-collecting contracts, these podcasters are doing what most influencers only dream of: making millions just by being themselves. Chic, charismatic, and a touch chaotic—just how I like it. 💄
Now it’s your turn. Got a fave podcast you binge like it’s bottomless brunch prosecco? Drop it in the comments, tag me on socials, or send a DM as dramatic as a Real Housewives reunion. I wanna know whose voice has you hooked.
Stay fabulous, stay feral—and let the gossip roll!
XOXO,
Ms. Rizzlerina 💋✨
