Trini podcasts you should listen to

If you're not already listening to podcasts, here's the rationale for starting, and below you'll find a short list of Trini podcasters you can try. 

What is a podcast? 

Think of radio —it's audio only — but each "broadcast" is recorded as an episode, and you can listen to any episode whenever you like. Anyone, even you, can start their own podcast on any topic they choose and that's why — according to Podcasts Insights — there are over 1.7 million podcasts out there, and growing like crazy. 

Why Listen? 

You should listen because podcasts can be educational, entertaining, inspiring, funny, scary, sad, etc., and they can cover broad topics like, food, sex, politics, religion, technology, relationships etc., or focus on narrow ones like raising teenagers, motherhood, goldfish rearing or iOS devices.

Whatever you're interested in, there's a podcast—or hundreds—on it, and you can choose which ones you'd like to follow.  

You can listen while you're travelling to and from work, exercising or doing the dishes.  All you need is a smartphone with an internet connection and headphones.

Where/how to listen? 

Most people listen from their smartphone, but you can listen from your computer as well. The main multi-tasking benefit only happens when you have earphones so that you can move around, housekeep, do yard work, travel, exercise, etc. You can even listen while you're falling asleep or waking up.

Podcasts are available through Apple, Google, Stitcher, Overcast, and Spotify, but there are many others. The easiest way is to go to the Apple or Google app store and search the word "podcasts."  However, some podcasts are only available from the creator's website.
