Audience Snapshot
A concentrated audience in the markets most sponsors care about.
Shifting Schools reaches listeners in 176 countries, but the audience is heavily concentrated in English-speaking education markets. That makes the show especially attractive for brands trying to reach school systems, educators, and decision-makers in North America and other core global education regions.
Why This Matters
Sponsors show up in familiar, high-trust listening environments.
The show is distributed through the podcast destinations educators already use, led by Apple Podcasts and supplemented by Spotify and direct web listening. That gives sponsors consistent exposure in everyday listening habits rather than one-off campaign moments.
The long-running archive also means sponsor visibility can benefit from continued discovery over time, not just launch-week attention.
Why Sponsor Shifting Schools?
This audience expects insight, not interruption.
At Shifting Schools, sponsorship works best when it feels useful. That means campaigns are built around relevance, trust, and story rather than generic ad inventory. Hosted by Jeff Utecht and Tricia Friedman, the show attracts educators who are actively thinking about AI, media literacy, leadership, well-being, and the future of learning.
For the right partner, that creates a rare opportunity: a message delivered inside a conversation educators are already choosing to spend time with.
What A Campaign Can Include
- Custom sponsored episodes designed around useful ideas and strong alignment
