Get a podcast's format profile
Returns the full format breakdown for a podcast: how often episodes feature guests, detected production formats (interview, panel, call_in, solo_narrated), advertiser and video presence, episode length distribution, publishing cadence, the publish-day histogram, and the sample sizes behind each attribute. The compact form of this data is embedded as the format field on podcast responses; use this endpoint for the exact rates and distributions. Returns 404 when the podcast is not found or its format profile has not been computed yet.

Publishing cadence over the trailing 90 days, in episodes per week (e.g. 5.0 for a weekday daily, 0.5 for a fortnightly show). Omitted until the show has been tracked long enough to measure reliably.
Publish date of the earliest tracked episode
How often episodes feature a guest: never, rare, occasional, regular, or always. Derived from the share of analyzed episodes with at least one guest speaker. Omitted when too few episodes have been analyzed to judge. Filter the catalog with the guest_frequency query parameter on GET /v1/podcasts.
Whether episodes carry advertiser reads. Omitted when too few episodes have been analyzed to judge. The full advertising profile (sponsors, read types, ad load) is served by GET /v1/podcasts/{id}/advertising.
Publish date of the most recent tracked episode
Whether the show is still releasing episodes: active (published within the last 90 days) or dormant. Omitted when no publish dates are known.
Production formats detected from the show's speaker-role mix: interview, panel, call_in, and/or solo_narrated. A show can carry several (a panel show with call-in segments). Omitted when too few episodes have been analyzed to judge.
