Today is Podcast Day

 

Listen to Darkness Radio Podcast

Today is Podcast Day. A podcast is a recording of an audio discussion on a specific topic, like business or politics, that can be listened to (in other words, a radio show). People mainly use iTunes and Spotify to download podcasts, but they are sometimes hosted on websites. I use podbean. In 2007 Ricky Gervais set a record for the most downloaded podcast (261,670 for the first month), which was later supplanted by Adam Carolla (the Podfather) who received over 59 million unique downloads between 2009 to 2011. The top podcasts now are The Joe Rogan Experience, Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard, The Ben Shapiro Show, and quite a few True Crime Podcasts, such as Morbid, Serial, My Favorite Murder and Crime Junkie. There are currently over 1,000,000 podcasts, with newer ones starting every day.

My favorite podcasts are usually intellectual dark-web type podcasts that eventually get kicked off youtube or are otherwise censored.
