Comedy Podcast Covers: Bright, Loud, and a Face

Put your cover in the Comedy chart

This is Apple’s current top 100 for Comedy in the United States, the largest of the ten stores on this site. Add your artwork once and it shows up in all four views: in a library row at 55 pixels, on the browse wall, at every size on its own, and against Apple’s file requirements. If you publish elsewhere, the other nine charts are linked below and each one is genuinely different.

What Comedy covers actually do

Full-strength orange, pink, yellow and blue, hosts photographed laughing or pulling a face, and type that is either hand-drawn or set in something rounded. Good Hang, The Toast, Giggly Squad, Conan and Bad Friends all commit. Joe Rogan is the outlier at the top: black, and a photograph.

At 55 pixels

Colour is what carries here, and colour survives. Two faces at 55 pixels is one face, though, and a lot of Comedy covers put two or three people in the frame. If your cover is a group shot, look at it small before you decide it works.

Counted, in today’s chart

38 of these 100 shows have a name longer than 25 characters. The average is 23.4. The longest is "Your Mom's House with Christina P. and Tom Segura", which is not a name that fits in a list row.

22 of them get by on two words or fewer. Those are the covers that can set their name large enough to read while scrolling.

iHeartPodcasts holds 5 of the 100 places. A publisher with that many shows in one chart is running a house style, so several of the covers you are placed against are variations of one another.

19 of these 100 also chart in the United Kingdom. The other 81 are local to this store, which is the part of the chart worth studying if you are publishing into it.

These numbers come from the same chart drawn above and change as it does.
