Where have all the Podcasts gone?

Question

Over the last few years I've had a rotating list of Podcasts I listened to regarding multifamily real estate as well as general real estate investing. Recently I noticed that several of those Podcasts are either 1) Producing a fewer number of episodes (i.e. once a month instead of once a week) or 2) Just stopped altogether.

Anyone else notice this trend?

One would assume that this is a result of the slowdown in the market, hosts/operators moving out of real estate, or a belief that podcasts have not be a lucrative marketing/outreach platform like they were a few years ago. Do you agree?

What Podcast suggestions do you have now at the end of 2025 going into 2026?

I call it the "Podcast Index." The more podcasts I'm invited to be a guest on, the hotter the market, and vice versa. Back in 2021 I remember days where it wasn't unusual for me to be a guest on three podcasts in one day, or 2-4 of them per week. Lately it's maybe 2-4 per month, so a 75% decline.

Maybe if I go two months without being on a single podcast I'll know the market is near a bottom and it's time to buy. When I was on 4 per week, I was selling.

I like the Pace Morby podcast generally. I find some podcasts get into the weeds of specific rental strategies and it can be a little much for the daily walk. I like the human element that Pace brings to his podcast. I like his energy and he seems to really know his stuff.

When I do want to get into the weeds, I've checked out christian osgood and liked his content too. He has interesting takes on mid-term rentals and ADUs if you're looking for multi-family podcasts.

Brian - So, if I start my new Podcast next week will you be my first guest? I'll call it "Real Estate Investing when the tide goes out" - ha!

Greg Kasmer · Answer

Helen - I think it largely depends on your focus/niche within Real Estate. I tend to listen to mostly multifamily podcasts because that's where I'm focusing. In that area I like Multifamliy Insignts (John Casmon), Pillars of Wealth Creation (Todd Dexheimer), and Unlock Your Life (Jennings Smith). In addition to those I also sprinkle in Bigger Pockets podcast , The Best Ever CRE show, and raising capital podcasts. Hope this helps!

I think a huge part is Real Estate was trendy 2018-2022. Now the rates are higher and the trend has died down. Result of that podcast views/interest is down. Less people interested so doesn't make as much sense mass producing content. I think podcasts are still being consumed but Real Estate is a smaller niche compared to broader topics.

1. People use it for raising capital and brand building, so if they are not raising capital they may not be wanting to take the time.

2. Most podcasts never go above like 30 episodes. I was shocked to see my FB feed that on Saturday it was the 7 year anniversary of my podcast.

3. I think podcast listening is down overall, and there were so many people creating them, that many got out.

@Greg Kasmer which ones are you listening to or that you've found helpful? I started listening to Furnished Finders podcast, I find the podcasts supporting brands are the most consistent.

@Chris Seveney what is the name of your podcast? Congrats on the longevity.
