The Joe Rogan Experience has overtaken The Daily to be the top podcast in the United States, according to the Apple Podcasts Top Charts of 2025.

Apple's year-end charts gives everyone an opportunity to reflect on how tastes are changing over time. On Tuesday, Apple released its Top Charts of 2025 for shows listened to via Apple Podcasts.

Accessible from the Podcasts app under the New section, the charts provide regional results for each user. These charts include the Top Shows for a country, which consist of the most popular podcasts based on listenership.

The charts also have categories for Top new Shows, Most Followed Shows, Most Shared Shows, and Top Channels.

As well as the charts, listeners in 15 markets can also access the Best Shows of 2025. It's a curated list of "standout podcasts" compiled based on how they resonated with Apple's editorial team.

The charts are not final, as Apple will be announcing the Apple Podcasts Show of the Year on December 4.
