Podcasts are a really growing trend for its amazing features. Podcasts are the episodic series of digital audio for easy listening. They are the best choice to listen to any news, educational, interesting stories, entertainment stuff, without having to spare time for it separately.

We can listen to them while relaxing, walking, cooking, working out, cleaning sort of without missing out on your favorite episodes. 

Many streaming apps and sources are made available for a convenient experience. A series generally features one or more hosts in a discussion about a topic particularly.

Content is to be scripted and improvised in a detailed way. Podcasts can feature any concerns like scientific research to journalism, biographies, commentary. There are many free downloading podcast apps and also paid podcast apps which are very low and affordable. 

Podcast is a combination of words iPod and broadcast. They are created in October 2000, and are being improvised since then. People create podcasts of any personal passion or to influence people with the ideologies or philosophies, as there may not be much income. They may also contain any commercial ads in between.  Podcasts are also managed by communities collaboratively.

Listening to Podcasts on your Mac

New Podcasts are actually the mac version of iPod and iPhone apps. They behave almost similar to each other. Podcasts interface are much easier to surf than iTunes UI. You can easily browse from the search bar to explore Podcasts. You can make playlists of your favourites.

Set up podcast settings accordingly for a better experience. In the ‘Preference’ menu, you can arrange the working of Podcasts on Mac. In the ‘Menubar’ ,click ‘Podcasts’ , select ‘Preferences’. In the ‘General’ tab , you can set refresh rate and select downloads. By default download option is set for ‘Only New’, you can change it accordingly to ‘Never’ also. 

In the ‘Playback’ tab, you can disable ‘Continuous Play; and configure skip options. Opt the drop-down arrows next to ‘Forward’ or ‘Back’ to change skip times.  Podcasts are easy to use and native apps available on Mac, its also reliable. However, they lack some features like playlist management, using Third party apps would be helpful in such case.
