Answer:

Answer

A podcast is any sort of digital audio and/or video recording that can be downloaded and enjoyed either on a computer or a digital music player (not just iPods).

According to Wikipedia:

  • A podcast is a digital media file, or a related collection of such files, which is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and personal computers. The term, like "radio", can refer either to the content itself or to the method by which it is syndicated; the latter is also termed podcasting. The host or author of a podcast is often called a podcaster.

Think of podcasts as portable radio shows that anyone can listen to, or even make and publish.

The most popular publisher of podcasts is probably the iTunes store. If you have iTunes installed, click the iTunes Store in the left column, then select the Podcasts category in the left and explore the many thousands of podcasts available.
