[Swprograms] Podding Along - Issue 87

[John Figliozzi <jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Most radio listening takes place in the car or while doing other things that allow freedom for the ear, but not the eyes and hands.  Podcasts permit a shift of listening time from a set appointment to virtually any convenient occasion.   
I do it while âpower walkingâ (most) every other day (when itâs not cold and wet or I havenât succumbed to laziness).  The âartâ of putting one foot in front of the other can be pretty monotonous and by âpodding alongâ while plodding along the mind also gets something useful to do. 

Some of the best radio comes from the public networks of the UK, Australia, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand and the U.S.  Apart from the originating programâs web site, most programs are made available through any number of other amalgamation sources such as iTunes and TuneIn. 

Admittedly, these are thoroughly subjective recommendations, but my interests and tolerance for incompatible views are pretty wide-ranging. Hereâs another in a continuing series of small samplings:

âKinderling Kids Radio is a Window into the Future of Radio and Mediaâ
DOWNLOAD THIS SHOW - ABC Radio National
Evan Kaldor was a high-flying banker in the US. Somehow he then ended up running the Sydney community radio station FBi 94.5. His next move was even more unexpected. He spearheaded Australiaâs only national, digital, free-to-air kids radio station.  The station now boasts the talents of The Chaserâs Chris Taylor and HG Nelson.  But itâs more than a radio station. Kinderling is also an app, itâs a parenting network, its a resource of on-demand content for parents. Kinderling is one of the finest examples of a broadcaster making the best of both linear and on-demand content. (29â)
