Episode #30: Behind The Podcast

Show Notes

Behind the Podcast: @BreakDrink

Laura is learning how to podcast. Sure she might have been introduced to podcasting back in 2010 thanks to Jeff, but now it’s time to figure out how to introduce others into the process, thinking, and technology behind podcasting.

Creating podcasts and getting quality audio takes some work for indie podcasters and those new podcasters in higher ed. The technology and services for this growing area of streaming sound is constantly evolving. For this episode we shared a bit of our “Behind the Podcast” as how we produce @BreakDrink current and in the past:

What is BreakDrink Podcast?

BreakDrink is an occasional chat with Jeff Jackson and Laura Pasquini about life, work, and random stuff. There’s a good chance you’ll hear these co-hosts talk about their thoughts on current events, ukuleles, the NBA, podcasts, higher ed, rescue dogs, research, books, technology, and tacos… not in any particular order. They may even invite a friend to the pod to chat. Really, it’s a podcast to encourage you to take a break from the day and have a friend fill your cup.
