The company behind Eamon Dunphy’s The Stand podcast recorded a profit of €103,595 last year.
New accounts filed by Dunphy’s Pepperwort Ltd show the firm’s 2022 profit compares with the €39,508 surplus recorded in 2021.
The podcast generates its revenue from advertisers, while subscribers can pay €5 before VAT per month.
The current affairs, sport and culture podcast posts five or more episodes each week that includes, among other guests, Dunphy and his former RTÉ soccer pundit colleagues John Giles and Liam Brady discussing the latest in the sport.
