Five Million, Twenty Five Thousand, Six Hundred Podcasts
Something like that. There are nearly 5 million podcasts on Spotify alone. Not to mention Apple, Amazon and Audible. Just to name a few. You likely are not a podcast virgin. And not unlike losing your virginity, finding that first magical podcast that you devoured, maybe even listened to every episode over and over, can be an elusive venture. My first podcast was Smartless. My son, knowing that I fangirl over Paul McCartney, sent me a link to Smartless episode #19, Paul McCartney. My uneducated theory that podcasts were boring, strictly educational and basically just high school all over again was disproven with this gem that I suggest to anyone, ANYONE, who has the faintest interest in all things Beatles, Wings or just one of the most prolific songwriters of all time. And that's how I have found most of the podcasts I listen to and wait for new episodes from each week...word of mouth or "you have to listen to THIS one." Its how a lot of us find our entertainment choices...
