ChannelWhen subscribing to a podcast, it is the channel you subscribe to. A channel describes the show, so will have information about the author, the web address where the audio file/podcast is residing and the language spoken. It’s also the thing that separates the UK from the rest of Europe. More jargon-busting in our online PR glossary |
