What Is New Media Now? Creator Economy, Podcasting, Audio, Video or More | New Media Show x.com/i/broadcasts/1RJjpzggY…

Great breakdown video on how we can look at New Media today. @ashnichrist - x.com/ashnichrist/status/205… Birth of the New Media Show: Podcast Hall of Famers and 2004 podcast pioneers Todd Cochrane and Rob Greenlee started NewMediaShow.com @nmspodcast 14 years ago as a live video and podcast show largely in support of the podcasting industry, because podcasting was one of the earliest real representations of what New Media was becoming, along with streaming and downloadable media. For almost all of those years, Todd was my co-host and partner in shaping the conversations, history, and industry perspective of the show. His passing in 2025 was a huge loss personally and professionally, and it also marked a meaningful transition point for the show. While podcasting was always central to the New Media Show, Todd and I also always saw the show as being about more than just podcasting. It was about the larger transformation of media itself: how content is created, distributed, discovered, monetized, trusted, and consumed in the internet era. I host the New Media Show now, and I feel its importance growing as the media landscape changes again. The show still honors its podcasting roots, but I am also expanding the scope even more clearly into the broader New Media industry. Over the past 20 years, this shift has grown into something that is now equal to, and in some areas larger than, traditional legacy media. To me, the Creator Economy is not separate from New Media. It is a major engine inside it. Indie creators, professional creators, podcasters, video hosts, streamers, authors, experts, and creator-led businesses are all helping form what I would call the New Media Industry. They are fueling the growth, spread, monetization, and everyday audience adoption of media in the internet era. New Media is really the next-generation replacement and internet expansion of traditional broadcast media. It is not just a platform category or a creator label. It is the broader transformation of how media is created, distributed, discovered, trusted, and consumed towards digital media. So I see a lot of the Creator Economy discussion as more about audience, market, and business model segmentation for creators, not necessarily a clean split between the Creator Economy and New Media. The Creator Economy is part of New Media. It is one of the forces driving it. @Scobleizer @ollieforsyth

Why “Fringe” Was the Wrong Word and What I Actually Meant About Podcasting 2.0 robgreenlee.com/2026/05/04/w… via @robgreenlee

Why “Fringe” Was the Wrong Word and What I Actually Meant About Podcasting 2.0 in New Media Show #660 - robgreenlee.com/2026/05/04/w… via @robgreenlee to @Podnews @adamcurry and @JamesCridland

Always appreciate being mentioned on the Podcasting 2.0 show with @adamcurry and Dave Jones.. this mention by them was mostly all for entertainment purposes.. if you look at the full context of the entire @NMSPodcast episode #660 with Brendan from @libsyn I praise the Podcasting 2.0 project and discuss the advantages of supporting it in RSS. But, the facts are that the big platforms have not supported the new tags and have an attitude that if it’s not invented by them then they will not support it for competitive reasons or core customer value reasons. Not saying the new tags are not being supported at all, I truly wish and have for years supported Podcasting 2.0 tags and think we will see Alternate Enclosure tag get wider support - because Apple Podcasts adding HLS, while harming RSS at the same time.
