hey, what's on your ipod?
I think I'm enjoying this podcasting thing more and more. Especially the listening to other podcasts aspect of it. Here's a list of the shows I'm pulling into my iTunes:
The Epileprechaun Show - This comedy podcast is put together by my friend Jon. He's only done one episode so far but there are some really funny moments. (feed)
VU D'ICI (Seen From Here) - Recommended by Addie, this regularly updated music show from Montreal is a lot of fun. The host is overy friendly, plays good music and speaks in that wonderful mix of English and French Canadian. (feed)
Soccergirl, Incorporated - Soccergirl's podcast is just plain fun. The naughtiness is fun, but I love it best when she let's her freestyle rapping flow. She had a really good rhyme going a few days ago. Listening to it while shopping in the local Pathmark was a pretty odd experience. Actually, listening to any podcast while walking around is strange. I laugh and smile and chuckle sometimes. It's obvious I'm no longer listening to mopey indie rock. (feed)
The Dawn and Drew Show - Just a pair of long running podcasters trading stories and making each other laugh. K-Robo told me to listen to this one. It took two or three episodes before I warmed up to it, but I have and now it's a regular in my podcast rotation. (feed)
Baseball Prospectus Radio - Hosted by baseball injury expert Will Carroll, this one hour radio show features a great mix of interviews, commentary and analysis. Listening to Will and the BP crew discuss trade rumors this past Saturday was fantastic. The most recent episode also featured an interview with Dodgers General Manager, Paul DePodesta. (feed)
Studio 360 - I've got a soft spot for Kurt Andersen. I can't explain it. I was fascinated with his website Inside a few years ago. And now he hosts a regular show once a week on Public Radio International. Unfortunately, the podcasts are only ten to twenty minutes and don't feature the entire show. The most recent episode is all about The Aristocrats and features an interview with Penn Jillette. Sometimes listening to interviews is much easier than reading an interview. (feed)
Pod Alliance - This podcast is a neat idea. It's a regularly updated sampling of members' shows (about 5 min. excerpts). Each episode also has a random podcast or two. I like listening to this when I'm on the elliptical machine at the gym. I don't know why. (feed)
On the Media - For approx. 40 or 50 minutes each week (just the time of a full day's subway commute), I get about five or six media related stories. It's just perfect. Brooke Gladstone has that very public radio voice, so be warned if you're not a fan of that sort of thing. (feed)
Northwest Music Podcast - They've only produced one episode so far, but that episode had me listening to my iPod as I came into the house, waiting to turn it off until a Tullycraft song had finished playing. Tullycraft! How can you not like a podcast that features a new tune from Tullycraft? Click the link to find out what other tracks are featured in the first episode. I liked some of them. This podcast is probably better for listening to while using the elliptical trainer. I hope there's an update soon! (feed)
Balgavy.com Podcast Edition - Hey! I know this one! This is my podcast. Eventhough I claimed to have a huge ego while at a party yesterday, I really don't. I don't listen to my podcasts over and over again. I swear. I am not that in love with my voice. I swear. You can even find it on the iTunes Music Store (search for "balgavy). That's probably the easiest way to add it to your iTunes feed for podcasts. (feed)
Please let me know what other podcasts I should subscribe to!

Thanks for the Epileprechaun shout out, Marc B. Your podcast is being added to my iPod as we write.
Stay away from Atlantic City.

I like a lot of these too - and also recommend Elvis Mitchell's "The Treatment," a half-hour interview with a different filmmaker each week.
