It's conference season, which means great speeches, meeting new and old friends, plenty of networking opportunities and lots of travel.
This weekend MCO staffers are exhibiting at SCCE's Compliance and Ethics Institute in Las Vegas, a long haul from our offices in New York. Next week it's Atlanta for the NSCP National Conference. How do we keep busy on flights and stay in-the-know? Podcasts.
We're not alone. In 2017, Edison Research found that 42 million Americans listen to podcasts on a weekly basis, at an average rate of five per week
If you don't already have some go-tos, we've listed a few of ours to get you started.
