@Amy2913 The many who said this is Director of Communications for the DOE Dept of Science. He has 200 podcasts on his iPad.

@profvrr Then I am really confused.

@Amy2913 In addition he says podcasts are too niche, too hard to find, and will never have broad appeal.

@profvrr @Amy2913 Hmmm @zweberfarms I feel that this relates to @AgSciToday (esp. for our farmer listeners). Just name 'podcast' could deter

@science_cow @profvrr @Amy2913 seriously though, what is the best way to break down the perceived tech barrier limiting ppl from podcasts?

@AgSciToday @profvrr @Amy2913 A very good question. Is it as simple as changing the name?

@science_cow @AgSciToday @Amy2913 I think that smartphones are the key. App that lets you instantly get content. There are some.

@profvrr @science_cow @Amy2913 downcast, stitcher, etc already do that but so few know about them unfortunately.
