“i” statement

Hey there, listener! In this week's bonus episode, I discuss the history of podcasting for a final project in one of my classes, and I also talk about what the future of this relatively new form of media might look like. From its conception over 15 years ago to how it has adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic, podcasting is pretty resilient, and it looks like it can withstand the test of time. I'm so happy to be able to contribute to this media, and I hope you enjoy learning about what I love to do. Thanks for listening✨
