Nowadays, it seems that everyone can be a podcaster and be able to create a show. Some go well, a few go extremely good, but there is also those who can’t pick up the pace. But our routines changes and our friends change a little bit. When we start a podcast, everything changes. The conversations will be not about you but about your episodes. When a conversation pops up, you say that you already spoke about it on your podcast. It’s starts like a hobby, but it turns to be a way of life – the pod way of life.
Our goal is to discuss, with a panel featuring speakers from Serbia, Italy, Brazil, and the USA, what challenges we face and whether the challenges of running a podcast in the world of think tanks are the same in EU countries, in EU candidate countries, and the Americas, and whether we should reach out to more listeners by simplifying our messages or if it is all right for this type of podcast to be listened to by a narrower, more professional audience. We would also cover recent events, focusing on whether the numbers of listeners increased during the COVID-19 pandemic or not, and what affects the listenership of an episode.

In this presentation, Aykut Balci shares of podcasting from Turkey. Podcasts are becoming the new big thing in entertainment. A few years ago, YouTube was the site everyone watched because it was a convenient, an easy way to get your entertainment. Now people are turning to podcasts because they’re even easier and more convenient. Listening to podcasts in the car has become the norm for many people. Instead of listening to a favorite radio station during the morning commute, many listeners catch up on an episode or two of their favorite podcast. Why have so many people made this change?
In this session you will hear from five Caribbean podcasters from different countries discuss – 1) the impact of podcasting in their country/community, and 2) the challenges and opportunities that podcasting presents. Podcasters will also dive into the future of what podcasting looks like in the region.

The Vietnamese Boat People podcast has organically grown to a listener base from over 10 countries with a community that is emotionally connected to the mission of the show. From one founding member, we have grown to team of 15 dedicated volunteers made up of students to experienced professionals and countless contributors to our social media, blog posts and events. As a community, we share the passion to amplify these stories that have been marginalized as part of world history. In this session, attendees will gain low-cost tips and ideas for connecting with audiences outside of the podcast and ways to engage, interact, and build an international community.
Content, content, content. It is all we see these days and as podcasters it is all we create as well! How can we add more value to our audiences and let the content be a catalyst for their success? Education is constantly changing at a rapid rate and I believe that online learning is becoming more and more valuable. Join this session to learn how to define great content and how to help your audience shape success.
