pod-diction

or maybe it's an addict-cast. or maybe it should be called pod-crack.

whatever you call it, i'm addicted to podcasts. i can't get enough of them. like a crack head stumbling across the urban wasteland looking for a hit, i wander around the internet, haggard and gaunt (and probably scratching myself), looking for my next nugget of podcastic satisfaction.

i currently subscribe to eleven podcasts. if given more time this week to search for the virtual dens of iniquity known as the itunes podcast "store" or google's podcast directory, i would probably have almost twice that many. how can you resist?

want to learn french? we have podcasts for that. want news about music and culture? hope you packed a lunch. house music? check. drum n bass mixes for running? yup. yoga? got it. wanna be a better climber? right over here, sir. video podcasts? don't get me started...

here's a list of everything i subscribe to:
-channel 101 - yacht rock: the funniest show on the internet. f*ck you, loggins! the 80's can suck it! (wooderson, if you've got your ears on, this one's for you.)
-french for beginners: took french for 3 years. don't remember anything except a bastardized version of the french anthem and bits and pieces of "champs elysses." haven't listened to one episode...
-groovelectric: drum n bass. 60 minutes each of pretty decent music. nice for having in the background at work.
-kcrw's morning becomes eclectic: all things indie. stella, this one's for you.
-npr - all songs considered: like their all things considered show, just for music nuts.
-npr-music: i don't know why they have two shows, but i listen to both...
-paste culture club: podcast version of one of my favorite media magazines.
-pod climber: climbing news, training tips, stories, etc., for those of us who like to hang by a thread (or a fingernail).
-podrunner: tempo setting d'n'b music for runners & spinners. titles like soleburner, groundpounder, & trailblazer let you know that it's wicked fast. like 165 - 180 bpm fast.
-ricky gervais show: it's a shame that guardian decided to charge for the second series of these podcasts, because the first one was hysterical. 3 brits sitting around a room talking about nothing. it's like seinfeld, only funnier.

do you guys do the podcast thing? what podcasts do you swear by?
