Podcasting has revolutionized how we share ideas and information. As a pre-recorded broadcast available on the Internet, it allows for an extensive range of topics from music to science. The term 'Podcast' combines 'POD' (Playable On Demand) and 'cast' (broadcast), reflecting its accessible nature. In this group task, you will collaboratively choose a topic, each select a different aspect, and script two minutes of engaging content. Through interviews, debates, and personal insights, you will create a dynamic podcast that captures your unique perspectives.
