Listeners are estimated at 5,000 to 25,000 downloads per episode, a figure that is an estimate rather than a published number, and the audience is largely U.S.-based.
The show is funded by foundation underwriters and donations rather than host-read ads, so a sponsorship would be an underwriting arrangement. The estimated rate of $90 to $560 per episode is a guide based on the download estimate. It suits cause-aligned brands and education-focused organizations.
