Explain to me what they are. I'm assuming they are entire shows that you can download to your Ipod and listen to at a later time?
Anyone using these on iTunes yet?
Any recommendations?
I've been listening to a satire stream called "Talk News America" (TnA).

Right. They are shows that you can "subscribe" to on iTunes, and anytime there is an update (say, weekly), it will automatically update on your computer. You can upload these onto your iPod or simply listen on your computer.
Pretty cool idea, and it looks like anyone can start a Podcast of their own if they want.
I'll have to try it out once I get one soon.
It is a cool idea but I haven't seen Podcasts that interest me just yet....
A while ago we (WOAI) were talking about possibly Podcasting a weekly Spurs/NBA show. Maybe I'll get back on top of that and do it this season.
Looks like some people at ProjectSpurs.com are working on a Spurs Podcast, but it's a dead link right now.
I'll probably podcast some shows I like from KCRW I liked when I was in California to begin with once the cable is hooked up in my new place and I'm not stealing bandwidth from the neighbors.
New to podcasting?

found this explanation.
BTW ..hate when fancy schmancy technobabble is assigned to things that already have a name. You record a tv show..you don't tivo it. The online radio station sends you a file of their program for you to listen how you wish....[/meaningless observation]
What was the name for this before Podcasting?hate when fancy schmancy technobabble is assigned to things that already have a name.
It's not a totally new concept. It's someone emailing someone else a file.
But radio stations didn't have the files of the shows available before to give to people - that's the novelty of it, right?
So what other two-syllable word would better describe it?
It was a pretty genius move for Apple to assign a name to it that includes the name of one of their products... Assuming Apple coined the term, of course.
I could really see this medium taking off in the near future. Especially when they become video.
From what I've heard of hosts, lamenting the old days ...it is that everything is digital. They have had the capability...most everything you download can be sent to someone automatically. If a website puts up files on a regular basis...they could always email to someone on a schedule.
Does it need one?
How about ..."they emailed me their monday program"
Yeah it does.Does it need one?
How about ..."they emailed me their monday program"
So let's say you wanted to start your own "Podcast" tomorrow called Duff and Friends. How would you talk about it? Say .. "Hey, do you want to sign up so that we can email you the Monday episode of Duff and Friends?" or "Do you want the Podcast of Duff and Friends?"
neither...(sounds like a fairy tale) but in any case it's in the lexicon...like tivo has become a verb...but that is what I mean...it's another word for something that already has a word.Yeah it does.

tivo, record, tivo, record, tivo, record....
Well considering it involves the specific moving of a media file of a show/event to an Ipod, I can see why they came up with a term.

Your Podcast isn't working for me when I try to listen through iTunes.
I don't work for that site.
Get a mic and record something.
First of all it's a guy and a girl, not two girls (if it's the same one I heard). And their names are on it .. Michael DeLeon and Melissa Martinez.
I haven't heard the podcast yet, but I know those two people....they hard workers and shouldn't bashed like that, GiG. If you think you can do better than put out your own podcast on the Spurs.
