The podcats episodes were aired weekly and the production was essentially a success, as it received a People’s Choice Award .
Subsequently, Archewell Audio (her team) filed a trademark application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office , however in January 2023 the application was rejected on the basis that the proposed registration had a likelihood of causing confusion with a mark that was already registered . It was further added that the word “Archetypes” was similar and undistinguishable in ” appearance , sound and meaning to a mark that was registered by Project Miracle IP Holdings in May 2018.
