The Co-BETE podcast
The Co-BETE (Pronounced ”coh beat”) podcast focuses on three exciting career fields in the 21st century - education, technology, and entertainment. Co-BETE’s primary objective is to analyze and discuss how these three fields intertwine and interconnect. Co-BETE (Co-B.E.T.E.) is an acronym for ”Community Broadcasting Education, Technology, and Entertainment.” The idea is to broadcast to ”the community” wherever possible - engaging, relevant, and pertinent information on the aforementioned fields while closing the digital divide. Co-BETE is hosted by educator and entertainer Doug Bailey (D.Bail), who has over twenty years of field experience. D. Bail earned his bachelor’s in media arts (2005) and a master’s in educational technology (2023). In addition to obtaining his STEM certificate, Doug will begin his doctoral studies in educational technology leadership in 2024. D. Bail’s additional entertainment experience includes television, radio, and record label positions in the number one market (New York City) at companies such as Electra Records, MTV Networks, Justo’s Mixtape Awards, Music Choice, 107.5 WBLS, and HOT 97. He is currently a lead instructor and work supervisor for a young adult academic and professional development program in Jersey City, New Jersey.
