Abstract

The broadcast of Serial, a podcast released in October 2014, triggered a radical change in the model of this new format, making it more popular for audiences and attractive to advertising incomes. Since that moment, the increase of investment, aggregators and the big media groups' interest revive podcasting as a communication tool. This paper will focus on Serial as a study case.
