    It is about an interesting topic, well developed and has a positive message. This topic interests me because a lot of employed people are not happy with their jobs. He talked about a very important point “ Human Nature” and “Idea Technology

    Podcasts are more than downloadable audio. The big difference between downloadable audio and a Podcast is the subscription component. Podcasts allow you to subscribe, and new shows are automatically downloaded as they are produced. Listeners can subscribe via Pod catcher software, and an RSS reader that supports enclosures, or iTunes. Regular Internet radio does not allow you to subscribe.

    Great topic, food is always good to talk about especially when is about how to choose the right plate in the menu.
    The great benefit about podcasts are you can take them with you anywhere and anytime, I don’t have time to watch TV and I just listen to the radio when I am driving, so podcast are perfect for me as a communication major student I need to be informed and podcast are a great way.
    Unlike traditional mass media, which is in a constant struggle to grow the audience so that it can sell advertising for a higher premium, the beauty of Podcasting is that the best content is very niche and it's not always going to be relevant to that niche audience.

    Last but not least, this is one of my favorites I start my days listening to this podcast, great music and always up dated,

    One of the best parts of a Podcast is the ability to fast forward, rewind, pause and delete the content. With so much content being produced into these channels, it's also fine to totally ignore a specific show or episode.
