I’ve been a keen podcast listener for quite a few years. If I’m completely honest, my listening has mainly been restricted to BBC Radio 4 programmes and their spin-offs, but over the past year or so I’ve spread my podcast wings and started to listen to a wider variety, from the now classic American Serial to various Dutch language podcasts such as Man met de microfoon. Indeed, the podcast craze has now finally hit the Netherlands, and it seems like every (wo)man and his dog is making one. That is of course the beauty of the medium: anyone can do it, and you can make it as simple or as complicated as you want! So, spurred on by one of my favourite listens, Podcraft, I’ve decided to jump on the podcast bandwagon and start one, too. It has, I must admit, been a steep learning curve, but it’s also been a lot of fun. Kletsheads is a podcast all about bilingual children, for parents, teachers and speech-language therapists. It’s (mostly) in Dutch and in the first (but hopefully not only) season, each episode deals with a frequently asked question, such as Is mixing two languages a cause for concern? or Are bilingual children better at communicating?. Want to have a listen? Hop over to the Kletsheads website, or search for Kletsheads in Apple podcasts, Google Play or Spotify. I’m curious to hear what you think…
