vibe coded The Epstein Files podcast with Claude in a weekend and just crossed 100,000 downloads in its first week.
to put that in perspective:
the top 1% of all podcasts globally get around 5,000 downloads in their first 7 days. this did 100k. that's 20x the top 1% threshold.
the average podcast gets 141 downloads

launched War Desk 13 days ago and about to cross 33k total downloads.
the average new podcast gets 141 downloads per episode in its first 30 days.
our daily recaps are averaging 1,000+.
that's top 5% per episode on a 2-week-old show.
higher.
last night we dropped War Desk: a post partisan, data-driven approach to documenting the escalating conflicts in the middle east.

war desk is tracking the same growth as epstein files in the first 2 days. curious if we can hit 100k in seven days again
biggest realization so far: when the topic is best consumed live, a podcast can't compete with the live feed. the medium just isn't built for that
