Adda: The New Age of News and Podcasts to Beat the Blues

Season 4, Episode 60,   Jan 09, 2020, 12:00 PM

We discuss two topics very relevant to our age and time. First, we talk about the shifting sources of news and media. And second, we chat on the rising prominence of podcasts.

We begin the first Adda episode of the New Year by discussing what could be the overarching theme of 2020 - the shifting sources of news. We live in an online world, in an age of Instagram Stories and WhatsApp Universities, where social media has become a news platform on its own. How will this affect the dissemination and reception of news? And how are teenagers driving this tectonic shift?

Then, we chat on what we do - i.e., podcasts! How and why has this medium blossomed in recent years and why do people like listening to podcasts? Listen in to our conversation for some riveting insights!
