I was pointed to a climbing podcast site called Pod Climber (via Wired Nut). Pod Climber looks like an interesting resource, but I really wish I understood the attraction of podcasts. I’ve written about podcasts on my other blog and still, months later, I have no desire to use them. It probably stems from the fact that I find it annoying to connect my MP3 player to my PC to download podcasts and then hook it back up to my car stereo to actually listen to the things. I much prefer just listening to XM Radio. Well, there’s my rant for the day. People must love the podcasts though as there are tons of them. Or are there just tons of people who enjoy creating them and not as many who actually listen to them? Hmm, there’s a thought.

I’m with you on the podcasts. The only ones I’ve listened to that were worth the download time were from broadcast outlets like NPR’s “This American Life” or such. I guess they used to be called “recordings”.
