From tech and education to storytelling and current ideas, podcasts are another way we build knowledge, strengthen comprehension & stay connected in a digital-first world
Whether it’s during a commute, a walk, or a quiet moment, listening is a powerful literacy skill

Literacy in the digital age isn’t limited to reading and writing; it also includes how we listen, interpret, and engage with information.
This week, MERLIN staff are sharing podcast recommendations that inform, challenge, and inspire them.

Whether it’s a printed page, an eBook, or an audiobook, reading helps us think critically, communicate clearly, and stay connected to the world around us.
