Listening to a podcast is so easy. It opens up a whole new world of topics and conversations, and the best part is it's totally free. You can listen anywhere — while you walk, while you drive, while you clean the house. Any young person could show you how in under 30 seconds, but where's the fun in that? Figure it out yourself with the four steps below.

1

Get a podcast app

On an iPhone, go to the App Store and search for "Apple Podcasts." On Android, open the Google Play Store and search for "Spotify" — or any podcast app you like.
