I have become a massive fan of podcasts, in fact podcasts are making a
fast resurgence, especially because they can now become monetized so
people can earn a living making good content. They are not subject to
the whims of one particular platform - such as YouTube, they are
syndicated and arise on your podcast application as soon as they’re
released (if you are subscribed), they are typically in a longer-form
than most news articles or YouTube content, and they allow you to focus
more on what’s being said, the ideas being presented, as opposed to the
the visual look and feel, which is so prevalent on visual media
platforms.
In the future I’m going to make a series of recommendations about the
places I think are good to become more informed about what’s going on;
and hear views and opinions - in some cases views and opinions I
disagree with.

`Gathering thunderstorm on the coast of Brittany, France, from inside a
tent, on the 28th of July 2018 – by Rhiannon Armstrong - “I recorded
this in a rare moment of quiet at a family reunion attended by more than
100 relatives in Saint Brian-sur-Mer in Brittany, France. My aunt was
also taking advantage of the afternoon lull, to practice the fiddle in
the tent next
door.” `__
