NielsenIQ BookData Podcast

The Bestsellers Podcast is a monthly round-up of the UK’s bestsellers, based on sales of printed books received from more than 7,000 booksellers across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The podcast is hosted by NielsenIQ BookData sales analyst and book trade veteran Philip Stone, and NielsenIQ BookData marketing content manager, Belle Edelman.

Every episode begins with a Top of the Pops-style rundown of the UK’s top 20 bestselling books. Then, in a section entitled “Beyond the Bestsellers”, Philip and Belle highlight a selection of other books, new and old, sitting outside the top 20, as well as their personal “Wish List” picks. And finally, in the “Under the Spotlight” segment, Philip and Belle turn their gaze onto a particular genre or theme. Facts, figures and insights are interspersed throughout every episode.

The podcast is available on the main streaming services.
