[Swprograms] Podding Along - Issue 70

[John Figliozzi <jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Most radio listening takes place in the car or while doing other things that allow freedom for the ear, but not the eyes and hands.  Podcasts permit a shift of listening time from a set appointment to virtually any convenient occasion.   
I do it while âpower walkingâ (most) every other day.  The âartâ of putting one foot in front of the other can be pretty monotonous and by âpodding alongâ while Iâm plodding along my mind gets something to do along with my body.  Some of the best radio comes from the public networks of the UK, Australia, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand and the U.S.  Apart from the originating programâs web site, most programs are made available through any number of other amalgamation sources such as iTunes and TuneIn. Hereâs another in a continuing series of small samplings:

ââ

âHailing Frequencies Open! Nichelle Nichols on Star Trek at 50; Kaepernick's anthem protest from a historical perspective; Ausma Khan's Muslim detective helps solve a greater mystery.â
q - CBC Radio One
The actress behind Lt. Uhura reflects on her role on a show ahead of its time. q's sports culture panel thinks beyond the play-by-play to weigh in on the societal impact of sports stories.  Author Ausma Zehanat Khan aims to tackle stereotypes about Muslims in popular culture. And she's chosen an unlikely vehicle of change: the mystery novel.  (80â)
