EL MUNDO al día

has reached two million views

this week

.

Directed and presented by

Javier Attard

, it was the first daily general information podcast in Spanish, following the model of other references such as

The New York Times

and

The Guardian

.

In just a few months it has established itself as a reference within audio in Spain and, if it took eight months to get the first million listeners, it

has barely taken 30 days to get the second million

.

The PP crisis and the subsequent invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops triggered the average number of daily listeners of

EL MUNDO per day

, as well as subscribers on the different audio platforms.

Since then,

the audience has skyrocketed to over 20,000 listeners a day

, with a dozen over 50,000.

The episode

Why is the war closer now?

, published a day before the outbreak of the war, is

the most listened

to, with

80,000

reproductions.

In it, our correspondent in Moscow,

Xavier Colás

, analyzed Putin's movements from Kiev.

Also participating in this episode was

Alberto Rojas

, a reporter from the International section and the protagonist of many of the episodes of this last month that have asked us to bring listeners up to date in Ukraine.

Precisely this podcast starring Rojas himself is also

among the five most listened to

.

the episodes

And the lava reached the sea

,

what

responsibility

does MasterChef have in the case of Verónica Forqué

?

and

The day the PP exploded would

complete the top 5 of the most listened to so far.

The data has shown that it did

make sense to create a podcast for a newspaper

because it complements the objective of the medium: to bring the news closer to the readers.

"With the podcast we give depth to the topics that are considered most important," says Attard.

During these months there have been stories of all kinds.

"The podcast that I have enjoyed the most is the one before the war where, with Colás and Rojas, we analyzed what was happening and we saw that it was inevitable," says the journalist.

The

most complicated narrations

for the voice of EL MUNDO are those that have to do with events: "The disappeared girls in Tenerife was a difficult issue, and this week the massacre in Bucha has been hard."

Javier Attard is the voice of

EL MUNDO al día

, but he comments that he only acts as a

speaker for the entire newsroom

.

The journalist puts all the sections of the newspaper on audio and includes each of the teammates to explain what is not seen behind the great exclusives of the newspaper and give more context and depth to the topics.

The next goal is "to reach three million as soon as possible."

"But above all", adds Attard,

"continue to grow in our base of daily listeners, sneak into people's daily routine and continue telling them the latest news with the EL MUNDO label

, but through audio".

This podcast came to reinforce the digital leadership of this header, which was also the first to launch its Tik Tok channel and the first among the big media to launch its payment model, which last month

exceeded 90,000 subscribers

.
