A-Z of Podcasts to Listen to …and Why
Continuing the series on looking at podcasts and podcasters that are not part of the large corporate world and who I listen to because they either entertain, educate, inform or inspire me in life. Today I am looking at H, which is an easy call as far as I am concerned!
H= Heather Gorringe. Heather is a UK podcaster who sent in a comment to my main podcast The Engaging Brand, she said that she loved the show but suggested that I interviewed more small businesses. I invited her on the show and the rest is history as we became friends. Heather has an amazing passion for podcasting and is presently on a Nuffield Scholarship to research how social media can help farmers reconnect with their consumers. Anyone who has met her is bowled over by her enthusiasm, her honesty and her ability to connect with listeners and consumers alike.
Heather produces a wonderful show - often promoted by iTunes called Wiggly Wigglers - which manages to both entertain, educate and inform! Wiggly Wigglers looks at farming, gardening and all things to do with the natural world/environment. The key to this podcast popularity is the humour, the humour is so natural and infectious.
Heather also co hosts 2 other podcasts - Middle Age Shed which is the story of how 2 middle age women struggle to maintain their weight and also The Podcast Sisters which is a podcast which explains Web 2.0 for the non geek and how to use web 2.0 to grow your business.
Heather is one of the influential podcasters in the UK and a great speaker on how podcasting has changed her business life.
