Our Podcasts

Looking for an enriching experience? Peruse our growing list of podcasts, share something you've learned with a friend, then discuss.

Podcasting is a form of audio broadcasting on the Internet. The reason it became linked with the iPod in name was because people download podcasts (audio shows) to listen to on their iPods. However you don’t have to listen to podcasts only on iPods; you can use your computer with some music software such as Windows built-in Media Player or Winamp, or other portable music players (iPod competitors) such as Creative Zen or iRiver. It really doesn’t matter, as long as you have some way to play music on your computer you will be able to listen to podcasts. Following is our growing list, and it is not even a drop in the bucket of what is out there, it is merely a place to begin. If you have heard any great podcasts and would like to share them and have them added to this list, please send them our way.

Happy listening, happy learning!
