Since podcasting is still relatively new, the community is very accessible and friendly. I heard a very literate and high quality podcast on openpodcast.org on the topic of comparative mythology. I felt compelled to write the guy, Jerry Trowbridge, and ask if I could get a direct feed of his ‘cast instead of having to wade through the ads on openpodcast. He said he didn’t have one as yet, but would think about it. Later that day he had it all set up! We chatted briefly about podcasts and audio work in general. Very cool. Check out his feed at http://pbcliberal.users.blogmatrix.com/podcasts/index.xml
And then, out of the blue, a podcaster from what has become one of my favorite shows, Chub Creek, wrote me because he saw my mention of the ‘cast on my site. Having Dave from Chub Creek decide to write me was like getting an email from someone on the cast of “Lost” or “Stargate SG-1.” Well, maybe not SG-1. The show is basically these two Canadian guys who have been friends since childhood but drifted apart in their adult years. They are using the show as a way to reconnect. Chub Creek typically offers a well-edited collection of skits, bizarre songs, excellent original music, and random musings. Listen here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/ChubCreek
It’s worth it to download every episode from 1 to the most recent.
