Most radio listening takes place in the car or while doing other things that allow freedom for the ear, but not the eyes and hands. Podcasts permit a shift of listening time from a set appointment to virtually any convenient occasion. Apart from the originating program’s web site, most programs are made available through any number of other amalgamation sources such as iTunes and TuneIn.
