Podcasts
Podcasting—making audio programs available in digital format—started catching on in 2004. Today an estimated three million podcasts are available on the Internet, including more than 115,000 in English. (As are all the programs that make up this section of the Old School Clearinghouse—please help us change that!) Some of these podcasts are about older voices and aging, others on social justice, others on workplace issues, others on society and culture. The episodes below focus on ageism and how to combat it. They include:
