Three Kinds of Podcasts
Learn how format changes the way a story is told.
Creators make lots of different kinds of podcasts. Each kind is called a format. We are going to focus on three:
Interview: One person, the host, asks questions, and a guest answers them.
Narrative: A podcast that tells a story. It can use voices, music, and sounds to bring the story to life.
Chat: People talk together about something they care about. It can be a few friends talking, or one person talking right to you.
