30 September is International Podcast Day, a day dedicated to celebrating how podcasting has blossomed from a hobbyist pursuit to a productive platform that allows businesses to generate sales from original content. A podcast is a free, online service that lets internet users download audio files (typically MP3) on their computer, smartphone, or personal digital audio player from a podcasting website. The term originates from the terms iPod and broadcast.
The podcasting industry was developed in 2004 by Adam Curry and Dave Winer, who were both previously employed as video jockeys at MTV. Curry created an iPodder program that automatically downloaded internet music to his iPod. This was the beginning of podcasting. His most recent podcast, No Agenda, is among the most popular in the world. Podcasts are easy to listen to. It is likely that your phone already has a podcasting app built in. Your phone also has a store section where you can download an app for listening to podcasts. Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, and Stitcher are some of the most popular platforms for listening. Third-party apps may include a podcast directory.
Would you like to start your own podcast? Recording one isn’t as complicated as you think. No special equipment is needed. If you have a smartphone or computer, you can do it. You can create podcasts without using an audio-specific app by following these steps:
Once your podcast is recorded, you’ll probably want it to be shared. You may find hosting and promotion assistance through platforms like Podbean, Spreaker, and Anchor.
