  2. Are Podcasts Taking Over Books? A podcast is a form of new media that is being used as a mode of communication. It was first started in the late 20th century by National Public Radio, but at that time it wasn’t very popular. But after coming into the digital age, when people started using the internet more often and smartphones became widespread, people started listening to podcasts on their smartphones and also use earphones/headphones. www.desertcart.nz

Currently, there are around 1.4 million podcast series and 57 million episodes on podcast, which is a very astounding statistic. www.desertcart.nz
