Interesting, in my case, I can confirm it, I have been consuming podcasts almost daily for about 3 years, I am Spanish, and podcasts are a very famous source of information, which every day has more weight in Spanish society based of what I see around me, especially in young people
Oh, so you're Spanish! That confirms the trend shown in the chart.
