Jarrod Blundy

Jarrod explains how he discovered the world of podcasting during a long road trip with a friend, going on to enjoy shows about outdoor reaction, news and the Apple fan community. He also elaborates on his experience of starting his own website, HeyDingus, along with listening to various Apple-centric podcasts—making particular reference to 20 Macs for 2020, a show by writer and podcaster Jason Snell, which blended tech podcasting with a narrative journalism format.

A Special Note

Jarrod is a paying subscriber of Martin’s One Prime Plus membership program for the shared podcast, Hemispheric Views; this did not influence any of the questions that were asked and did not place any expectations on Jarrod as a participant of this academic podcasting project.
