AVweb audio brings in-depth interviews and features directly to a listener's desktop computer, headset, or portable MP3 player. With at least two podcasts each week (on Monday and Friday morning) and a host of special programs, AVweb audiocasts reach regular readers of AVweb as well as aviation enthusiasts who use iTunes or frequent any of several dozen podcast sites on the web.
Every Friday morning, a dedicated e-mail newsletter (AVwebAudio) recaps the week's podcasts and provides listeners with clickable links to AVweb and directly to the audio MP3 files.
