Brilliant's podcast advertising is mostly dynamically inserted: the same pre-produced spot is stitched into many shows by the hosting platform, so the buy is closer to programmatic audio than to a sponsorship. Most placements ran on shows hosted by Omny Studio (Triton). podintel does not estimate spend; the figures here are placements actually heard in the audio.
