Why PodPitch Doesn’t Support Location Filters

PodPitch doesn’t offer location filters when pitching podcasts. Instead, we focus on helping you reach audiences that care about your story — regardless of geography. We hear this question a lot, especially from PR teams running local campaigns.

The short answer

PodPitch does not currently support filtering podcasts by city or state.

Here’s why

  1. Podcasts aren’t local news outlets.
    Most podcast hosts don’t restrict themselves to one geographic area. Limiting to just one city would reduce their reach. The vast majority aim for national — even global — audiences.

  2. Local podcasts are rare.
    There are some region-specific shows (e.g., The Austin Life Podcast or This Week in Miami), but they’re the exception. And even those often feature guests and topics from outside their city.

  3. Audience relevance beats geography.
    If you’re launching a food brand in Chicago, you may get more traction on a national foodie podcast than on a hyper-local lifestyle show with limited reach.

What we recommend

  • Focus on niche alignment. Use PodPitch’s filters to find shows in your industry or category.

  • Mention your location in the pitch. Even if the show isn’t Chicago-based, you can highlight why your story is locally relevant.

  • Mix in other channels if location is key. For true geo-targeting, local PR or radio will serve you better.

Final word

If highly localized targeting is your top priority, PodPitch may not be the right fit. But if your goal is to land meaningful coverage that resonates with the right audience, wherever they are, we’ve got you covered.
