In order for your business to thrive in an evolving digital world, it is important to continue learning so you can find new ways of doing things.
However, finding the time to learn about new strategies to help grow your business is quite a task with such a heavy work schedule.
This is why podcasts are perfect! They are a refreshing alternative to scrolling down an endless screen.
They are ideal for mobility as they provide flexibility of listening wherever, and whenever is convenient for you.
We want to put a few of our favourite podcasts in front of our readers.
Check out what the Fin team is listening to with our podcast recommendations that are relevant for our industry and/or marketers.
The Adam Buxton Podcast
The English comedian Adam Buxton is the lively host of his own ‘The Adam Buxton podcast’.
He talks with different guests each week from filmmakers to musicians, comedians, and actors.
In each episode, he raises fascinating questions that open listeners thinking on a range of subjects.
“He discusses serious subjects with a humorous overtone, so it feels more conversational which adds to the human factor.
The outdoor atmosphere also contributed to the de-formalising of standard indoor lecture techniques”.
