They say podcasts are the new books for a whole new generation that does not have time to read books. Now, I am not advocating podcasts over books but both have a separate significance when it comes to extracting knowledge.
Books are for people who actually like reading them but there are many people out there who prefer to listen to podcasts instead. The podcast may be educational or just for entertainment or even a conversation, kind of like an audio-based interview. Listeners can lend an ear while walking, while in the gym while driving, or anytime when they feel like it.
Consuming content is a subjective choice and so is choosing the perfect podcast based on your personal preferences. Check out from a variety of podcasts available on Spotify and do let us know your favorite podcasts.
