I’m watching QVC as a household duty avoidance mechanism while SWMBO is at the store; they were selling a pretty nice little MP3 player with 2GB internal memory, and an SD slot expansion.

What struck me as funny about the presentation was this little snippet from show host Bob Bowersox, quoted as accurately as I can recall it:

A lot of kids today are downloading blogs, and what do they call ‘em? Ummm, podcasts. Anyone can make a podcast today, and a lot of people listen to them.

Indeed.

And yep, I tipped over for one of the MP3 players, too.

Gotta love these internets. A couple of posts back, I lamented the breakup of The Siderunners, and mentioned how I was introduced to them and their breed of magnificent country music.

I also made a podcast song request, and today I listened to the Evil Genius Chronicles Clambake episode of April 24, where my request was fulfilled. A good show by Dave Slusher, everybody’s Podcast Buddy, including the only song in the world with “crackhead chicken dance” in the lyrics.

Thanks, Dave!

Or did I miss the announcement? I’ve been checking transistr.com for nearly a year now, looking in vain for the re-skinned, re-branded iPodderX. Is this project now defunct?

I have to get back on the regular podcast listening bandwagon; our local NPR station has switched to an all-classical music format. I like classical music, but it’s not drive-time fare. And the local news station gets tedious after a bit.

If push comes to shove, I guess I’ll have to dust off the old iPodderX client, and get back into the swing of things.

TV off. I’ve got the latest rendering from everyone’s podcast buddy, Dave. I’m listening to same on my laptop as I type, and 5 minutes into the thing, I can see the purchase of another Michelle Malone album in my future. Specifically, the Sugarfoot album. Hot damn!

And, when you bring up her website to snag the URL for the blog post, the same song Dave just played starts up. Had me all confused for a minute. I thought maybe there was a snag in Dave’s recording/production apparatus there for a bit. Then came the dawn.

Update: On the road, in a hotel room, listening to a podcast, because everything on the teevee sucks. It doesn’t get much better than that.

My second night of looking for the new Siderunners album have rendered exactly nada. Not on iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby, nor any link I’ve followed from their site.

Oh, well, I’ve spent months waiting on Transistr, too. Any bets on which I find first?

Only one so far, available through iTunes. Looking forward to my commute today.

More Siderunners info.

Still no bananas. But they’re working on it.

The show notes for the latest Getting A Leg Up Podcast 進站播客: Jimmy-World Eat say the following about the amazing AmigoFish:

AmigoFish Media mathematically powered nuclear search engine

I’m already entertained, and I haven’t listened to the show yet. The AmigoFish – Catch What You Love, podcast-wise. Any other catching, you’re left to your own devices. And, the Bluesman rocks!

UPDATE: New digs for the Brooklyn Bluesman are here. Adjust your aggregating devices accordingly.
