Podcasts

Podcasts are how many people receive the news and learn about interesting people, places and things but the beauty is listening may take place on one's own time.  With my earbud, as not to disturb Oompa, I only listen at night or during the day when resting,  I also have a music library some of which I've purchased through iTunes -- so easy -- so cheap!  I can also import regular CD's.

Enter the name of the podcast on Google to subscribe, and then each episode is downloaded to a computer or other device.  My podcast and music libraries are all in iTunes.  After they are downloaded, my iPod is plugged via USB cable to my computer and synced, synchronized (copied) to my iPod.  PURE MAGIC! And ----- many NPR programs such as This American Life, Radiolab, A1 with Joshua Johnson may be downloaded as podcasts.

The iPod Classic was the first iPod Apple produced.  The one on the left was purchased in 2006 when our Civic Chorale traveled to France and Spain, the middle one purchased January of 2016, and the 160 gb was recently purchased.  Several years back the Classic was discontinued yet many people still want them because the sound reproduction is better than newer devices.  Used and reconstituted Classics are offered online.
