Dubai, UAE — The Augustus Podcast Network has surpassed 113,000 monthly downloads in May 2026, marking a major milestone for one of the Middle East and North Africa’s fastest-growing audio networks.
Leading the charts are The Lovin’ Bahrain Show and The Lovin’ Beirut Show, each recording over 22,000 downloads this month alone. Close behind are The Smashi Business Show, The Lovin’ Dubai Show, The Lovin’ Abu Dhabi Show, and The Lovin’ Palestine Show — reflecting a loyal, engaged audience spread across the GCC and Levant.
The milestone comes alongside a significant distribution announcement: The Lovin’ Doha Show is now available on Qatar Airways via Podeo, bringing Augustus Media content to travellers for the first time. Passengers flying with Qatar Airways can now tune into hyper-local stories from one of the region’s most dynamic cities — at 30,000 feet.
Available across Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Anghami, Google Podcasts, and Deezer, the network delivers bilingual content in both English and Arabic — spanning lifestyle, culture, business and tech — with audiences tuning in from Cairo to Karachi, Beirut to Bahrain.
For brands and partners looking to reach engaged audiences across the region, Augustus Media offers tailored audio advertising and sponsorship opportunities across its full network. To explore partnership options or access our media kit, get in touch at hello@weareaugustus.com.
