The Ranker provides insight into the Top 150 Podcasts as well as the Top 150 Australian-Made Podcasts, the Top Publishers in Australia, and the Top Sales Representatives in Australia from 1 February through 28 February 2023, as measured by Triton’s Podcast Metrics measurement service. The month of February had 80.5M downloads.

For this reporting period, the top three publishers were ARN’s iHeartPodcast Network Australia again at #1, LiSTNR (SCA) climbing to #2, and SiriusXM Podcast Network at #3.
