Podcasting

I am going to start off with saying, I am not a fan of podcasting. I haven’t tried it till now but I am not doing this again. If I want to listen to something it will be a nice book audio or music. I don’t want to listen to someone with their personal opinions and bad jokes. This may also be because I am currently listening to “Very Really Good” by Kurtis Conner. He is talking about how he got burned on his vacation in Mexico because he put on expired sunscreen. I picked this because I liked the art and seemed relatable. I was mistaken. Also how do they ramble for so long? I’m saying this because this podcast (and like others I looked up) are so long, this one is 44 minutes. I could only take 7 and a half minutes.

On a different note, podcasting started as far back as the 1980’s known as “audio blogging” but was officially podcasting in 2004 due to iPods and portable audio devices being created. Now over 115,000 people podcast up on the internet and in 2017, a survey said 42 million people listen to podcasts above the age of 12 weekly at least. No thank you. I don’t know any of my friends who listening to podcasts.
