Abstract
In little more than 15 years, the podcast has gone from being virtually unknown to becoming a multibillion-dollar industry. There are an estimated half-billion podcast listeners worldwide. Podcasts are available for various interests, from entertainment to news, politics, sports, hobbies, and education. Podcasting in medicine has similar origins, beginning with journals and academic/educational institutions wishing to share information on new clinical trials or publications, as well as by those who wanted to promote the free and open access model of online education. The COVID-19 outbreak led to a renaissance in the availability of infectious diseases-oriented audio podcasts, due to the need for regular information about SARS-CoV-2 and the pandemic-related preference for virtual learning. However, many in the infectious diseases community have not yet been introduced to available infectious diseases podcast resources. In this article, we highlight 38 of the most popular infectious diseases-oriented audio podcasts.
