Well, Well, Well

Podcasts have fast become a part of our everyday media consumption. In fact, the average person spends more than five hours a week listening to them. But could listening to podcasts lead to healthier habits? In the first study of its kind, University of South Australia researchers have explored just this, finding that podcasts can significantly improve health knowledge, increase exercise levels, and boost healthy eating. UniSA researcher Beth Robins joins Jack to discuss the findings, highlighting the potential of podcasts to promote positive health behaviours.
