Posted by Gord Tep on September 25th, 2009
What’s a podcast?
This may seem like a stupid question to you, but what the hell. A podcast is essentially a fake radio show. It’s the same as a radio show, but it’s not on the radio. Actually, it could be on the radio, but it would have to be available on the internet as well. The “pod” stems from iPod (duh), Apple’s absurdly popular mp3 player. Personally, I’m a Zune user (yeah, I’m the one), so it could have just as easily been called a Zunecast as far as I’m concerned.
When’s the best time to listen to a podcast?
This really depends on your schedule, but I’ll give you some suggestions.
- During your commute to/from work (either in your car, on the train, on your bike, etc.)
- During your lunch break (if you don’t have anybody else to keep you company)
- Before bed (it will help you fall to sleep if the show is boring)
- While you work (nothing helps hurry the day up more than to listen to Kev and me while slaving away at your desk, or on the construction site, or in the lab, or in the factory, etc.)
- While you eat (breakfast, lunch, and dinner are only enhanced by the sounds of 300 Bucks Damage)
- At the gym (nothing helps you get through that extra mile on the treadmill like our dulcet tones)
- On a date (nothing will turn your date on more than hearing Kev and me yap about utter nonsense)
- While cleaning your house/apartment (we’ll keep you entertained and your home will be spic and span)
- Any other time I didn’t think of…
What’s this post really all about, anyway?
