Like a good book or an exciting film, podcasts help us imagine new things and experience the world in unexpected ways. They have the power to connect us across time, place, and culture bringing communities together around shared interests.

When we talk about podcasts, we’re not just talking about a new technology that drives the future. We are talking about voices and ideas that challenge us, inspire us and make us human.

In today’s modern media economy, there is no better way to learn, get curious and innovate the way we communicate with each other in unexpected ways, often from a different point of view than with podcasting. Grateful that podcasting has given us the opportunities to step outside of our comfort zones and see the world with different perspectives.
