Irish chart

News podcast covers in Ireland

News covers are a flat colour field with a network wordmark or a presenter's head. Below is Apple’s current top 100 for News in Ireland, in chart order, with somewhere to put your own cover and see how it holds up beside them.

Looked after by Sleeve, a record sleeve.

Right now the top three are Brendan O'Connor, The Indo Daily and The Rest Is Politics. Those three covers are the ones an Irish listener browsing News sees first, so they are the fairest thing to hold yours up against.

Your cover in the Irish News chart

Add a JPEG or PNG and move it up or down the ranking. The library row draws it at 55 pixels, which is where somebody meets it first, and the same artwork carries across to the browse wall, the size ladder and the file requirements without being added again. The image never leaves your browser: there is no upload, no account and no limit.

Your image is read by your own browser and never sent anywhere. No account, no upload, no limit. Add it once and every view below uses it.

What is different about the Irish chart

The Irish chart takes from both larger neighbours: about 33 shows per hundred are shared with the US, and BBC Radio 4 held 9 of the top 100 in both Society & Culture and Science on 10 September. RTÉ Kids held 7 of Kids & Family. A cover here is likely to be flanked by British public radio branding on one side and American network branding on the other.

Counted, in this hundred

Off the same chart drawn above, which is in Apple’s order: number one is the cover doing the most work in Ireland right now.

19 of these 100 shows have a name longer than 25 characters. The average is 19.2. The longest is "Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov", which is not a name that fits in a list row.

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

The Guardian 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.

29 of these 100 also chart in the United States. The other 71 are local to this store, which is the part of the chart worth studying if you are publishing into it.
