“So we say what” is now interested in podcast, this audio or video content produced to be listened to mainly on the internet.

As far as we are concerned, we will talk about the audio podcast that is becoming increasingly popular in the world.

Nearly 100 million podcasts are listened to in France per month, and it is a market which is in full structuring in Africa.

While South Africa and the countries of East Africa are ahead of the African continent, the podcast ecosystem has yet to be built in the rest of the continent.

In addition, young people find in it a new means of expression on social issues as well as on culture or education.
