2007 Podcasts

For those lucky souls out there who got iPods for Christmas, I give you the list of podcasts to which I subscribe. Good stuff for the commute to work, shopping, cooking, etc. Not sure if this is interesting to, like, anybody out there, but I humbly accept your adoration and love mail anyway.

You can subscribe to all of these in iTunes. Just click Podcasts in the left playlist & resource window, then click the podcast directory button in the lower right. You can search by name or topic, click Subscribe, and you're done.
