What is a podcast? A brief explanation..

The internet is cool.
Real cool.
And it has stuff.
Lot’s of stuff.
And some of that stuff is real cool...

But if you want to see the really cool stuff on the internet you have to go and find it. Podcasts are a way for cool stuff to find you. Podcasts can be video files, audio files or pdf files that contain anything the podcaster decides they want to show to their subscribers. And they are FREE!

By subscribing to The Marqui Adora Podcast you’ll receive a peak behind the scenes as we write and record new songs, get some Web Freebies and information about and recordings of our live shows.

The easiest way to get our podcast is to subscribe through iTunes using THIS LINK. (If you don’t have iTunes on your computer you can get it for free by going HERE.

Click subscribe after iTunes opens and shows you our podcast page on the iTunes store. You'll Notice that the latest episodes will be downloaded immediately. If you want to get older episodes you can click the GET button or to get all the available episodes push the GET ALL button.

(Please note: You don’t need an iPod to listen to podcasts. All that you need is the iTunes software and a computer. That being said, iPods are great for listening to podcasts while doing other things.)

The iTunes store also has a directory of podcasts for you to check out and more subjects then you would believe.

No really.

I'm not kidding.

Anything.

You can find podcasts about cooking, making things, tech news, making home movies better, learning a language, movie reviews, science news, golfing, call in shows, politics, religion, skepticism, ect...

So look for a podcast on your favorite topic and you'll find you are not alone. (And if by chance one doesn't exist then you could be the one to make it!)
