From Shepard to Rogan: Some of the richest podcasters right now

Dax Shepard – Armchair Expert

Actor, comedian, and technically a Disney prince Dax Shepard hosts this podcast. A multitude of people from all walks of life have sat in the eponymous armchair to talk to Shephard about everything under the sun, but the bottom line is to just have a conversation about being human. These conversations seem to have an audience as evidenced by his estimated 20 million monthly listeners. Some estimate he’s raking in as low as USD 9 million to as high as USD 40 million. 

Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark – My Favorite Murder

Of course a true crime podcast would be on this list. Comedians Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark host My Favorite Murder, which started when the two met at a Halloween party back in 2014. Every episode consists of both of them delving into a murder and giving commentary, though the podcast has also welcomed guest stars like Patton Oswalt and Conan O’Brien. Together, it’s estimated that they have a net worth of USD 40 million. 

Bill Simmons – The Bill Simmons Podcast

Podcaster and CEO of media network The Ringer, Bill Simmons has been a mainstay in the world of Sports for years now. Capitalising on his experience in Sports media, Simmons later started the cheekily named podcast The B.S. Report on ESPN. He would eventually venture out on his own and establish The Ringer, a media network which features many podcasts like the aforementioned The Bill Simmons Podcast. His net worth is estimated to be around USD 100 million.

Dave Ramsey – The Dave Ramsey Show

It’s not surprising that Dave Ramsey would be on this list since his financial advice has been lauded—and criticised—by many. With an estimated 13 million listeners per week, Ramsey dishes out tips on how to budget and save. He also lays out a plan on how people can get rid of their debts by dealing with the smallest debts they have first. Estimates put his net worth at around USD 200 million, with his podcast earning him USD 10 million. 

Joe Rogan – The Joe Rogan Experience

It seems that there’s no in-between and you can either only love or hate Joe Rogan. Nevertheless, the success and iNFLuence of his podcast in undeniable. Rogan has had a wide array of guests on his show from Businessmen like Elon Musk to whistleblower Edward Snowden. But it was the podcast’s unlikely political iNFLuence that made it gain traction in recent years. On top of that, some of the controversies surrounding the podcast also made it the talk of the town. Rogan’s net worth is estimated to be around USD 100 million.
