Podcasts

To be quite honest, I’ve never listened to a podcast on my own.  At Illinois State a few years ago, one of my classes involved us listening to “This American Life.”

The class was an introductory course to journalism.  It was an elective just to see if i enjoyed journalism and if I should completely change my major from education.

It was over 18 months ago that I took this intro course.  I don’t remember exactly which episodes we listened to, but we listened to around five during the semester.  Once again, I remember why we listened to them either, just standard for the course.

I don’t even know where to begin when it comes to podcasts.  I enjoy listening to music and not so much people talking.  Don’t get me wrong, there’s a fine art to a podcast, but it just doesn’t appeal to me.

I suppose I would find some sort of sports podcasts and listen to those.  ESPN Fantasy Focus Baseball or EPSN Daily Radio podcasts sound interesting to me, and if I begin listening to podcasts, I would start with something along those lines.
