How We Rank

Verifiable public data only — no download estimates

Every podcast on this list is ranked on a 100-point score built entirely from publicly verifiable data. We do not estimate or guess download numbers — those figures are private and not reliably available. Instead, we measure what we can actually see and verify.

The Ranking Formula (100 pts total)

Reviews & Ratings50 pts

Apple Podcasts review count normalized to a max of 5,000 reviews. A high review count is the strongest public signal of an engaged, active audience.

Social Media Following20 pts

Combined Instagram, Twitter/X, Facebook, and YouTube followers across all verified official accounts. Normalized to a max of 3 million combined followers.

Active Last 12 Months10 pts

10 points awarded to any show that has released a new episode within the past 12 months. Inactive shows score 0. This rewards consistency and penalizes abandoned podcasts.

Episode Count20 pts

Linear scoring: 4 points per 100 episodes, capped at 20 points for shows with 500 or more episodes. Rewards longevity and output without over-rewarding volume alone.

Data Sources

Apple Podcasts — Public ratings, review counts, and chart positions from the Canadian storefront.
Spotify — Follower counts and chart presence from the Canadian market.
Instagram / Twitter / Facebook / YouTube — Follower counts pulled directly from each show's verified public profiles.
Podcast RSS Feeds — Episode counts and release dates from publicly available podcast feeds.
Note: Episode counts are estimated from founding year and release frequency where exact feed counts are unavailable. All other data is pulled directly from public sources. Rankings are updated periodically. Last updated: March 2026.
