What is a Podcast?
Have you heard the term “podcast” and always wondered what there are? Well this article is for you.
The definition of a podcast is:-
A podcast is a digital medium consisting of an episodic series of audio or video.
An easier way to describe is it’s like the modern version of a radio show that you listen to or download from the internet.
The beauty of podcasts are you download the shows for Free and listen when you have time, you don’t need to tune in at a specific time.
Here is a small video to explain podcasting in three minutes:-
You can listen to audio podcasts when you are:-
- Commuting to work
- Running on a treadmill
- Gardening
- And my favorite, building Beehive Frames
How can I listen to podcast?
Well do you own a mobile phone? Most Smart phones these days have a podcast application available for them. Download the “Podcast Application” on any apple device or “BeyondPod” on the Android devices.
Where else?
Other devices that can play music probably can play podcasts as well, such as ipads, ipod touches etc. You don’t need a iphone to listen. But you will need to itunes account to download free podcasts on other apple devices.
On your computer, find the podcast page and click the play button for that show.
Do Podcasts cover all sorts of Topics
Yes you better believe it, you can get podcasts about any topics. News, gardening, comedy. But best of all Beekeeping :).
Are there any New Zealands Beekeeping Podcasts?

On this show we are talking about more thieving mongrels, Getting Ripped-Off in the UK, alienation of New Zealanders?, “is my backyard big enough” and what’s goin’ on across the ditch? This is Episode One Hundred and One of our beekeeping podcast.
