Well this is going to be my first diatribe. I wanted to mention this before but I did not have solid ground for my critic. My beef is with the word, Podcast as the New Oxford American Dictionary defines it as "a digital recording of a radio broadcast or similar program, made available on the Internet for downloading to a personal audio player". I know it does not have to be but in most cases to my understanding a "Podcast" is an mp3. I just don't understand and it is pissing me off with all this, download my Podcast crap. It’s just an mp3. I have no desire what so every listening to Brian Williams NBC news Podcast, some stuff kind of appeals to me Ronald Moore's Podcasts, but those have content that I can't get anywhere else and it is not a live event or summary of one. But I am a person that cannot watch taped sporting events so that might explain some stuff. I like listening to mp3s of songs and even books on mp3. The productization of the word just pisses me off.
