Pods Everywhere!

I've been listening to podcasts for a while. I subscribe to a few free podcasts through my iTunes account. I like that you can download them and listen to them later, in the car or at the gym. My favorite podcasts all come from NPR: "Wait, Waite...Don't Tell Me," "This American Life," and the podcasts for their music reviews. I've always loved radio and this feels like an extension of NPR, only I get to decide when I want to listen and I can hear things that our local radio station does not broadcast. These are fabulous for road-trips, if you have an iPod.

My Favorites, try them online and then sign-up for their FREE podcasts

This American Life -- Listen to the Money Pool episode.... all about our economy and how it imploded! Better than all the pundits on TV.

Wait, Waite....Don't Tell Me -- a weekly news quiz that is very funny. Listen to this old one that features Obama, way before he was much known outside Chicago.

NPR Podcast Builder -- combine shows, make your own stuff here!

I wish we could start using our website to host podcasts for teens! I think it would give them a great way to be involved in the library, and show them that we really do listen to them.
