In the last decade, the popularity of podcasts has risen exponentially. This form of media initially began as a modern iteration of rogue radio. Like any other form of media, the podcast game has evolved over the years. As a communications professional and a media consumer, Shawn Behal has studied podcasting prolifically. He is fascinated by how the growing popularity of this media form has prompted discussion of virtually every subject in podcast form. Variety has truly become the name of the game with this medium. Right now, you can find and listen to a podcast about anything from sports to entertainment to daily life. And if there isn’t already an active show with your subject matter in the spotlight, you can create your own! Studying the history of podcasting in real time has been a treat for the self-proclaimed media consumer, who aspires to launch his own podcast in the future.
Some of Shawn Behal’s favorite podcasts include Football Weekly, The Gary Neville Podcast, Sports Card Nation. He’s always on the lookout for new shows that discuss sports cards, football highlights and motivational running and athlete stories.
