@jaredwhite I actually disagree - the meaning shifted to this definition years ago as originally it was „an audio show that was broadcast to an iPod“ … many people didn’t like that and tried other definitions like audio casts - it didn’t stick. Now podcast just means “audio shows that you can subscribe and listen to in an app” - and that is fine - even though I am a fan of the open podcasts and format

@derfrankie This is incorrect and revisionist history.

@jaredwhite 😂 sure … I was there in the mid 2000s recording a podcast for my company and burning it on cds so that our clients can listen to it … and yes we called it podcast because it was about the format of the “show” (which is a term only used in English) and not the delivery format. So the term was already gone…
