Taskuhäälinguid, often referred to as podcasts, are digital audio files that can be downloaded or streamed from the internet. They are typically episodic, meaning they are released on a regular schedule, and cover a wide range of topics from news and current events to comedy, storytelling, and educational content. Listeners can subscribe to podcasts through various platforms and applications, allowing them to automatically receive new episodes as they become available.

The term "podcast" is a portmanteau of "iPod" and "broadcast," reflecting the early popularity of portable digital music players for listening to these audio programs. However, podcasts are now accessible on a multitude of devices, including smartphones, tablets, and computers, via dedicated podcast apps or web browsers. The rise of podcasts has democratized audio content creation, enabling individuals and small organizations to produce and distribute their own shows without the need for traditional broadcasting infrastructure. This has led to a diverse and ever-growing landscape of content catering to niche interests and diverse audiences.
