In 2021, podcasts became a separate »department« at GameStar – and have grown like never before.
The year 2021 was the most successful in our podcast history to date: great topics, guests who love to tell, top positions in the charts, dinosaur and for the first time more than two million hits – wow! Many thanks to our listeners!
And most of all thanks to our Plus members, who themselves eternally long metaverse analyzes, Talks about MLB: The Show and Department Stores as well as appreciated traveling in Markus Schwerdtel’s gaming stone age.
At the turn of the year it’s getting sentimental again when Micha, Maurice and Dimi look back on the podcast year, on their favorite episodes, bitter failures (Hello, Henry Cavill) and thin Skyrim excuses (Hello, Maurice).
It was an eventful year, especially for Micha, because he has been head of the newly founded podcast department since August. Since then there have not only been twice as many podcast episodes, but also a second podcast series called “What do you play like?” In which we present our current favorite games.
Missed episode? Here is an overview of all podcast episodes
We also do podcast Kassensturz and jump into the numbers: Which episodes have been listened to the most? And in which countries are we most popular, in which are there only a handful of loyal fans?
In addition to Europey, we have to highlight Switzerland again – we seem to be doing something right for our neighbors in the southwest. In any case, more correct than for Austria, even if special greetings go to the city of Vienna at this point (also to podcast dinosaur Thomas!).
And yes, we know what you’re thinking now: We want more podcasts with the founders Maurice, Dimi and Micha. But that’s complicated – and when should we invite such great guests as this year?
In addition, there is of course our regular audio review of the year 2022 – The year the game industry came to a standstill
