PODCAST: The Quick Know-how

Podcast has been around since early 2000 which is an audio recording that discusses certain things and can be listened to or streamed using applications available for mobile phones, or computers. It has certain episodes just like any TV Series that tackles relevant or anything that the podcaster is capable of discussing. During the early times, the podcast is somewhat associated with a Digital broadcasting of FM or AM radio programs but that has been clearly defined away from podcasts when digital radio programs started having their platforms.

Nowadays, anyone can make their podcast depending on their perspective or the things they wanted to convey to their listeners. Topics such as relationships, technology, medicine, comedy, or any other thing that you wanted to share with the world. Having a podcast of your own can be a great way to directly say what you wanted to say, in your own words, in your style, however, let us not forget that what we say also speak more of our self and our overall personal upbringing. We can always say what we want to but how we say it tells a different story.

If you think you have the confidence to have your podcast, better start researching on topics that you wanted to discuss with your listeners and get ready to inspire, and uplift your followers, who knows, maybe by doing this, you can also become a better person somehow

To start, you need not buy anything. Yes. You read it right. Starting your podcast career can be done without stashing your hard-earned money or breaking open your piggy bank. Thanks to applications in the market today that offer free with no strings attached. As other applications offer it free, one platform has gotten my attention aside to the fact that it is free. They are saying that their application is the easiest way to make a podcast.

Meet Anchor– Make your own podcast. It is their mission to democratize audio. They believe that everyone deserves to have their voice heard regardless of background or level of experience. That being said, I further search more about this product and was surprised to know that they are offering it to mobile phone users. They have versions for Android and iOS but also have integration using desktops or laptops. You can have your podcast ready within minutes. The mic from your mobile device can deliver good audio from the start and as you get the hang of it, you can add hardware like a condenser mic, audio mixer, and/or pop filter that can all affect the quality of your voice during recordings. Key features of the Anchor app are as follows:

• Easy to use creation tools
• Hosting and Distribution
• Analytics
• Provision to get paid

Among the four, what I like most is the 100% Free hosting and distribution with NO storage limits, no trial period, no catch. It is Automatically distributed to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, and all other major platforms.

To begin, you simply need to download the app, sign up, start recording, and hit publish so you can be heard everywhere. Feel free to write on the comment below the name of your podcast and I will try to listen to it the soonest.
