Illini Gadget Garage podcasts on WEFT 90.1 FM

Posted by Sarthak Prasad on May 8, 2017

Hello all,

I wanted to let you know that the Illini Gadget Garage now has a podcast made available via WEFT Community Radio (90.1 FM). You can listen to the first episode, featuring Madeleine Wolske discussing cellphone battery myths and tips at https://soundcloud.com/weft-90-1/illini-gadget-garage-episode-1-battery-myths. Great job, Maddie!

New podcasts will be shared on the IGG Facebook page, and we’ll be adding links to them on the project web site soon. You can also follow the WEFT Podcasts station on SoundCloud at https://soundcloud.com/weft-90-1 to catch this and other podcasts from the community. Topics for the IGG podcast will include tips for device maintenance and information related to repairing, reusing, and properly recycling electronics and electrical equipment.

The IGG podcast is part of WEFT’s short program series. “Short programs” are weekly 5 minute pieces that are “dropped” into other shows throughout the day, allowing them to reach many different audiences and have greater impact. Our thanks to WEFT for this opportunity to encourage a sustainable relationship with technology throughout the CU community!

If you have tech topics you’d like to learn more about via the podcast, feel free to send suggestions to illinigadgetgarage@gmail.com.

Best wishes,

Joy
