What the hell is a podcast? I honestly have no idea.

Listen to a couple. Like the Moderator Roundtable and the interview with Nathan Barnatt.

Re: We should do some sort of retro game jeopardy
It's a ridiculous word. Most people don't even listen to "podcasts" on their iPod. Why not just broadcast? Why must everything be a silly portmanteau for internet phenomena when they're substantially the same as their non-internet counterparts?

Broadcast doesn't really fit since it isn't sent out as radio waves and if you miss it, that's too bad. The word has already stuck and people know what it means. Internet Radio is a stupid term too when you thin about it.o.pwuaioc wrote:It's a ridiculous word. Most people don't even listen to "podcasts" on their iPod. Why not just broadcast?

Broadcast doesn't have to be radio waves. That's a radio broadcast. You're right, though, it it's stuck. Another terrible word, like television, that will permanently mar this already pock-marked language of ours.Hobie-wan wrote:Broadcast doesn't really fit since it isn't sent out as radio waves and if you miss it, that's too bad.
