Podcasting has emerged as a formidable competitor to mainstream media, capturing the attention of audiences seeking more authentic and in-depth conversations. This is not about politics, but the marketing around it.

This episode explores how the rise of podcasts has shifted political discourse, allowing politicians to engage with voters in a more relatable manner, free from the constraints of traditional media sound bites.

We share examples from recent elections where candidates turned to popular podcasts to connect with audiences, highlighting the growing recognition of the medium's influence.

The discussion also touches on the importance of critical thinking and the diversity of perspectives available through podcasts, contrasting them with the often sensationalized narratives of mainstream media. Join us as we examine the evolving landscape of media consumption and the implications for both creators and listeners.
