One of the things I love about the on-trend podcast movement is that you can listen to your favorite talk show anytime, anywhere. Here is my beginners guide to podcasts to help you understand the ins and outs of maximizing the benefits of this fantastic industry.
That’s because podcasts are SO MUCH more than a regular radio station.
Today there are hundred of thousands of podcasts covering every imaginable topic like history, health and wellness, serial dramas, business and marketing, skincare, and comedy… and it’s all free. It’s like having your own on-demand, customized radio station.
So, What Are The Basics?
All you need to get going is a smart device and a podcast player app that you install on your phone. Once you set up your podcast player, you can see “what’s hot and trending” or search by topic.
Next “click” on the episode of your choice and then download it and listen or save it for later. You can even subscribe to a channel like The Spa Dr. on your podcast player so you don’t miss a single episode.
You can also go straight to YouTube to access select video podcasts. It really is so simple.
Here’s a list of the top podcast players for your smart device.
