Podcasts Are Great
So, late to the game as usual, I have discovered podcasts. They’re great. It’s radio, on demand. As an avid Mac critic, I’ve tried holding off installing iTunes, but finally succumbed. So far, iTunes is just the best solution out there for subscribing to, downloading and playing podcasts. I’ve tried TWiT’s webplayer, Digg Podcasts webplayer. They’re both okay, but iTunes is just more comfortable. Fine.
I’m currently subscribing to:
- Atheist Viewpoint
- Various TWIT podcasts
Now I just need more good podcasts. That’s where you come into the picture. Tell me: what I should be subscribing to?
- Open Source Fauna Theme For Wordpress
- Podcasts Are Great
- Favicon2Dots
- Coacheye
NPR has many great podcast, which broadcast This American Life. They have one that you might like, it's on current events. It's called Wait Wait don't tell me. Check it out.

Any political podcasts? How about comedy?
BBC Radio 4's "The Now Show" - Very UK-centric comedy, but it's worth a try.
Boagworld - Various web related stuff
Escape Pod - SciFi
FormulaPod - Only if youre into F1 of course
The Onion Radio News - Just silly
The Sunday Papers - 10min (or so) news reviewish by a very funny Englishman who also does BritishMac (but you wont like that one)

UK-centric is fine. I like to listen to local stuff that's totally not local to me.
Will check out.
Gotta admit, neither into F1 nor The Onion.
Will check out.
Because it's mac? :)
I actually used to listen to MacBreak Weekly.

I criticise because I love!
So even though I'm an avid mac critic, I'm not a rabid and zealous windows fanboy :)
