Body Systems Podcasts
As an example of a podcast about a system of the Human Body, I have created a podcast about Synesthesia. Later this week you will be working on research for your podcast topic. Be thinking about what you’d like to research and take a look at the list in the previous post for topic ideas.
I’m also including some links to more information about synesthesia for those interested. Hope you enjoy! The intro and outro music for the podcast is “Some One Turning” by the band Arctic from their album Music for Rain, licensed under Creative Commons Attribution License 2.5.
