283 - Discussing the Series, “What’s A Podcast?”
Manage episode 477006934 series 3552050
How do you define a podcast in 2025? Is it audio only? Do video podcasts count? If the content holds up with your eyes closed, is that a podcast? These are some of the questions we pose as we break down the mini-series, “What’s A Podcast.” We share our thoughts on its immersive storytelling, stylistic choices, and the hot takes shared by the PMC team and community. Is podcasting still about independent voices, or is it destined to be shaped by corporate giants and their algorithms? We're weighing all sides, and we're still asking ourselves: Can we truly define this constantly evolving medium?
