Podcasting - Everyone can do it.
Podcasting is a subset of audio teaching I’ve been excited to get involved in.
I started thinking about this project last Christmas and what better way to learn the ins and outs than make my own podcast ? I’m currently up to Episode 12 on the ‘One Way to Do It’ podcast . In it I chat to Music Professionals about their skills.
The subject matter may be a bit ‘dry’ for many casual listeners but the process is effectively the same for everyone !
