What podcasts are you listening to? – Lost me on this one daily writing prompt.

I’m not much into podcasts yet. I’m more of a reader. I’ll occasionally listen to some from the New York Times or Washington Post.

I guess it’s an area I should explore more. It just doesn’t fit with my multitasking mind. I can listen to background music and read and write. Listening to a podcast is listening to it and not doing much else for me.

Yeah, I could have pulled one up while painting the porch yesterday. I could listen in the car but I enjoy music quite a bit.

I’ve missed the boat on doing them so far. Their popularity surprises me but then again I’m older and technology trends sometimes change faster than I keep up with or care to change to.

Please remember to keep that balance with technology. Don’t forget to talk to each other while looking at each other. Don’t forget those pets who rely on your interaction. Don’t forget that young child of yours doesn’t understand what is taking your attention away from them.

Have a great day.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
