Podcast Fans?

Anyone else into podcasts? I’ve always loved talk radio, so much so that I’ll even listen to conservative talk shows if I can’t find anything else. My 4 gig Ipod is about 1/3 podcasts all the time. Radiolab’s my fave, but I like a lot of them. I like a lot of the NPR stuff; This American Life, Studio 360, Fresh Air…all the stuff I can’t seem to catch when it airs. The Ricky Gevais’ podcasts are fun, Flight Of The Concords video podcasts are good for a laugh, I even listen to "This week From Lake Wobegone" every once in a while. It’s soooothing. I’m always subscribing and unsubscribing to different things. So much great stuff out there. Things from The New Yorker, National Geographic, lot’s from the BBC… So much information and fun right there waiting for me to soak it up.

A couple of times in the past, I asked several family members, and even a couple of you to make sure that, heaven forbid, if I should ever end up, like, bedridden, to please make sure I have a good radio within reach that gets NPR. And not just the classical music stations, I want to be talked at. Now I could probably fill an 80 Gig Ipod with enough talk to last me the rest of my life!

You could still come and visit me though. Bring comic books.

So, if anyone else is into this sort of thing, I’d be interested in hearing about the shows you like.

(Last night I finally figured out how to get SWAG onto my Ipod. That made me really happy. I wish all you WIDR DJ’s would get on that. I can only hear your shows when I’m in town.)

There are actually a couple of good podcasts on there.

 

 

Hanging on For Mercy might be my favorite there.

 

 

Speaking of which how come Freddy isnt doing a podcast?  He’s got the talent to put on a snazzy show.

Eat My Pod!

This episode of SwaG! proves that host Bat Guano is just not right. Go here to get three hours of weird radio.

This episode is two weeks old. Guano has been taking time off to participate in undisclosed “therapy.” He will capture the SwaG! Halloween Special and make it available for your festivities by the end of Oct. 30. Unless he’s shot in the head when mistaken, understandably, for a rabid zombie.

A repository...

Submitted by QuantumNoise on Thu, 10/23/2008 - 11:33am.

Making this thread a repository for pocast interviews would be cool. I’ve been obsessed with them over the last two weeks. I’ve listened to about four diff interviews with Joan Didion. I’m now looking for a podcast/online audio interview with Nick Tosches, but to no avail. Any leads? Any other good interviews out there?

Two episodes, four hours, of rare recordings of rare broadcasts where I ruin another WIDR host’s show by subbing.

Your show descriptions alone make me hyperventilate with laughter when I look at your website.  I need to get caught up on the podcasts!  And I WILL!

Nothing special, not even a rant on those people from Alaska who still won’t leave us alone even though they lost. Just a guy who listens to SwaG! above the arctic circle. Or by it. Might as well be above it.

More SwaG! From the Radio!

Submitted by Bat Guano on Thu, 11/27/2008 - 9:18pm.

Hear the recording of last night’s radio broadcast, and learn the “history” behind the phenomena known as SwaG!

Then hear the SwaG! of the week before.Recorded live, Nov. 19, 2008. Featuring a journey to Thailand, India, Ghana, New Orleans, each of these spots on the globe, for one funk-oriented ‘60s-’70s song. Then we repeat the journey, Thailand, India, etc. They let this kind of thing on the air in Kalamazoo, Mich. If you don’t live here, or missed it due to absence or ignorance, go here to get the stuff.
