What is a Podcast?

Podcast = Broadcast + iPod

The word "Podcast" is derived from two words: Broadcast & iPod, and it is used to refer to online audio shows - meaning that you can listen to podcasts anytime unlike radio and television. 

There are different kinds of podcasts, there's drama, comedy, sports, political analysis, business, and others.

You can listen to our podcasts on our website where all episodes are available or through mobile applications such as Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Pocket Casts, Stitcher, and Cast Box.

To learn the basics of podcast making, you can listen to Sowt’s MOOC podcast, Kawalees, where we take you backstage and introduce you to the ABCs of podcast production.
