think about the time you’re captive, where you have nothing to do but the task at hand. For me, it’s moving the lawn. I throw in the ear buds and spend 45 minutes mowing the lawn AND listening to my favorite podcast (and thus, getting smarter about my craft).

Lauren Rose on 06 Mar 15Prior to using Podcasts, I would either use music or nothing at all during exercise time, cooking, or other activities that I can focus on something else while doing. By integrating listening to podcasts into these times, I have upped my productivity and am able to use relevant podcasts to learn more about information I am interested in. When I first saw podcasts and how lengthy many of them are, it can feel overwhelming to sit down and listen to a 30-60 minute "talk". However, if you use them while doing other activities (during cooking or long drives is my favorite) you can get what you need done while being informed. My favorite podcasts range from entertainment (Serial) to informative for teachers (TED Talks, EdReach). - Lauren Rose
