Estimated, confidence 40%: 181 Apple ratings points to the 50 to 200 band (2,000 to 8,000) but the show is under two years old, which shifts it up, and the niche is narrow with a 20-episode feed and no sponsors, so the estimate is set lower to match the niche; a 2,000 to 8,000 band is a rough ceiling and is not used as the estimate.
