(Christian Headlines) The two most popular podcasts in the United States right now are not about sports, news or even pop culture. They’re about the Bible.
“The Bible in a Year,” hosted by Catholic priest Mike Schmitz, is No. 1 in the U.S. on Apple’s podcast charts, while “The Bible Recap,” hosted by Tara-Leigh Cobble of D-Group, is No. 2.
“The Bible in a Year” features Schmitz reading Scripture and providing commentary in podcasts that span around 20-25 minutes.
In “The Bible Recap,” Cobble walks alongside the listener and reviews that day’s Bible reading. Each podcast lasts around eight minutes.
The podcasts rank higher than podcasts by The New York Times, NBC, Joe Rogan and NPR.
