Podcast List – August 2009

ipod Aug 31, 2009

Here’s the updated list of the podcasts I listen too, most found via iTunes or the ABC web site.  These are audio-only, so ABC means ABC Radio, usually Radio National. Major changes in the year since I last did this list include:

  • ABC Radio now offering individual story podcasts. A year ago you had to grab the entire (say) 1 hour episode of Late Night Live or the Science Show. Whilst you can still do that, they now offer a 2nd ‘per show’ podcast feed; the individual stories of that show. You can pick (download) only the stories you are interested in.
  • ABC Radio now has subject-based podcast feeds. As per above, if LNL does an individual story with a science focus, that is also added to ABC Radio Nationals (new) science feed. Along with stories/episodes from other shows. So this single feed covers multiple shows.

Both changes are just excellent. I appreciate the effort and use them many times a week. Thanks ABC! 

Must Gets: Every Episode downloaded

Abandoned!

  • Movie Time (ABC). In their enthusiasm for films, they gave away too many plot points – spoilers – for me.  Unforgivable!
  • The Movie Blog. Was once such a light-hearted show. Lost its way terribly over the last few years as it staggered into being more part of the ‘scene’ instead of keeping their distance. Has paid the price. Come back, Doug and Darren!
