Like landeyda said, it's based on acceleration/newness. If you go from zero to hero with quick growth, you will fly to the top (new and noteworthy). If you've been around a while and are still gaining listeners, but not really quickly, you wont be up there.
Is it only available on iTunes? What about an Android app or something? I just switched to this damn Galaxy s4 Android bs and I don't know how to do shit anymore. My whole fucking world is turned upside down. Any advice on how to dl the podcast on my phone?

I'm honestly surprised this is so high. There's so many podcasts with huge followings and nobody I know listens to O&A anymore. Great surprise though!

The podcast ranking system is weighted towards letting new podcasts hit the top with enough downloads.

If I've learned something from all my years of downloading podcasts its that no one ever beats This American Life.

Is there any way to download the podcast without itunes? I already subscribed on my ipad but would like to have the episodes on my pc too.

And now they say it was just a test podcast, maybe they heard the Buzz feedback. The 'real' one is out tomorrow and every Wednesday.

Do you have a legitimate reason that you don't want iTunes? Or is it because you think iTunes was involved in 9/11 somehow?
Maybe if your PC is from 2003 and think "ITS A RESOURCE HOG DURRRR" you might have a point.

I personally love the way it organizes my collection; and I hate most apple products. But to each his own.
Even though it's show we've already heard, Subscribe and auto-download to spread the the Virus.

I use it to manage my music and I think it's a piece of shit.

I use itunes to organize my music and listen to podcasts, but it really is still a resource hog.
