Podcasts have been around for many years. For those of you that don't know what a podcast is, it's simply a downloadable digital audio file that almost anyone can create, or listen to. The genre of the podcast is up to the creator, but can cover a large range of topics. I discovered this world about five or six years ago. The job I had at the time allowed us to listen to music, but I started to get tired of listening to the same songs each day. I checked out the podcasts app on my phone, and began my listening adventure.

For those of you that are familiar with podcasting or would like to start, here is a list of the top 10 shows I listen to weekly. This is in no particular order of preference.
