[Swprograms] Podding Along - Issue 11

[John Figliozzi <jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

These are some podcasts from international and public radio sources that I've found particularly interesting and edifying as I'm "plodding along" in my regular exercise regimen.  

In addition to via the websites referenced, these podcasts generally are made available through several other popular internet sources such as iTunes and TuneIn.

DOWNLOAD THIS SHOW - ABC Radio National
Facebook Experiments, Netflix in Aus, Qleek
Head of Village Roadshow, Graham Burke, insists Netflix is coming to Australia and that piracy will kill off Australian film, but do his claims stack up? Plus, Qleek, the little wooden hexagon that's trying to make digital music feel human. And Facebook experimenting with your brain? Where is the ethical line? (28')

UNDER THE INFLUENCE - CBC Radio One
Satisfaction Guaranteed
Companies that offer 100%, no questions asked, no fine print, lifetime guarantees - they're hard to find as not many companies want to offer that unlimited return policy. (28')

My preferences tend toward documentaries and other spoken word fare that carries a longer shelf life than current affairs programming, for example.  But some readers have suggested some interesting programs that don't necessarily within my admittedly somewhat narrow rubric or about which I was either unaware or some reason hadn't sampled. In coming issues, I will highlight some of these as well.
