Los Angeles, CA- November 25, 2019: Dax Shepard and Monica Padman in "The Attic" where they record the podcast Armchair Expert. Shepard’s Armchair Expert, which he cohosts with producer Monica Padman, is one of the biggest podcasts on the market. With an estimated monthly audience of more than 20 million, Shepard and Padman have hosted guests of the likes of Hillary Clinton and Bill Gates, helping Shepard earn $9 million in 2019 to take the No. Armchair Expert has continued that momentum, becoming the ninth-most-listened to show on Apple Podcasts in 2020, up from the 17th spot in 2019. Since Forbes revealed the five highest-earning podcasters last year, Spotify has cut deals with three of them (Rogan, Simmons and, now, Shepard).
