How to Listen to a Podcast
On your computer
Our podcasts have a play function directly on their episode pages. Navigate to the podcast episode page, look for the play button, and listen.
On your smartphone
The most convenient way to listen to a podcast is on your mobile device/smartphone.
Use the Apple Podcasts app if you’re on an iPhone – just search for the term "podcasts" on your phone. Using an Android or other type of smartphone, you may need to download a podcast app such as Stitcher or Soundclound. Then, subscribe to our show and away you go.
Subscribing is where the power of podcasting really kicks in.
When you subscribe, shows start automatically coming to you. Next time you load up your app, the latest episodes are all there, ready to listen to. It’s amazing!
HOW TO LISTEN TO PODCASTS IN THE CAR
The car is the most common place to listen to a podcast. It makes sense – it was always a big radio listening space, and Podcasting is the new radio.
But, how do you listen to a podcast in the car? First is via Bluetooth connection. Most modern cars are set up to connect to your phone so that you can make hands-free calls. That same connection can also play audio from your phone. So, connect via Bluetooth as normal, and then play something from your Podcast app. Does it play over the speakers? Great!
No Bluetooth? Try a Cable
Next, if that doesn’t work, then an even more common car feature is an ‘aux in’ or a ‘line in’ port. It looks just like a headphone jack and all you need is something like this 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable to connect your phone to your car.
As a last resort, some people use radio devices to basically broadcast your phone’s output on a particular frequency, then you can tune into that on your car radio. Or, remember those tape deck connectors for the really old school?
