I guess it’s time to look back into the content management threads and podcasting that went through the Yahoo mailing lists.
It would seem that the extra gigs I used to have on my external drive are nearly gone… Down to less than 500 megs left, and it’s time to do some pruning.
My Friend Is Still Not Well from the podcast “WGBH Morning Stories” by Dr. Felton Earls
Fantastic. I just noticed the latest WREKroom Renaissance show up in iTunes.
Underheard.org has a great selection of diverse shows.
A couple I subscribe to:

KTUH – Honolulu, Three hours weekly
Musical stylings on and by the wheels of steel, with flavorings from jazz to rock to hip-hop, showcasing the turntable as an instrument and the turntablist as a musician.

The ongoing discussion about genres and file naming is picking up steam within the Yahoo podcasters mailing list.
I’m one of the ones who labels the genre for my incoming podcasts as “Podcast”. I then use an iTunes smart playlist to show all the new podcasts within the last 2 days that have been downloaded, and the play count is 0 (or not listened to). This makes it very easy to copy the smart playlist to my iPod via an applescript.
Morning Edition, January 4, 2005 ยท With some of the most productive farmland in the world, Iowa is an agricultural powerhouse known for its corn, soybeans, cattle and hogs.
But an Iowa research center says some farmers here and elsewhere should consider moving away from commodity crops to what’s being called “place-based” foods.
NPR’s Greg Allen reports that a good example can be found in Newton, Iowa, the home of Maytag cheese. The company was started by Fred Maytag, then president of the well-known appliance maker and owner of a small dairy farm in central Iowa.
While the appliance maker is now publicly owned, the dairy farm remains very much a Maytag family business, where many employees have worked for decades. They make a million pounds of blue cheese each year, and they do it the same way as when the plant opened: almost entirely by hand.
