Charlie Kirk Show surges to #1 on podcast charts

The Charlie Kirk Show has hit the top of the podcast charts in the wake of his assassination. This also comes as his social media reach has grown exponentially in the days since the shooting that took place on September 10 at Utah Valley University campus.

As of Tuesday, according to data from Apple, Charlie Kirk's show was at the top as the number 1 podcast in the category of "All Podcasts" as well as "New" podcast categories. Although Kirk died on September 10, there have been multiple tribute shows to Kirk in the days following the assassination. One was from his wife Erika Kirk, as well as an appearance from Vice President JD Vance.

In addition to the podcasts, two of the top 10 books on Amazon were by Kirk, including "Stop in the Name of God," at the number one best seller, and "The College Scam," at the sixth spot on Amazon.
