Pisstakers have been given a mention in Podcasting magazine, a serious on-line monthly magazine about, you guessed it, podcasting! We don't do any podcasts, not since our experimental days, but apparently the article about some downsides to RSS on page 36 of the April edition, was interesting.

Picking myself off the floor in shock, hey, we appreciate the thumbs up, a vindication that we sort of know what we are talking about, even if we don't take ourselves or a subject too seriously.

So download a really classy pdf with high quality graphics and real journalism, and catch up on the latest trends and hottest shows in podcasting.

Connected to a mega expensive internet connection, I hit the buttons to a few iTunes podcasts and hoped I would get something decent to take away with me listen to on Sunday. They were all techy titles, but to be fair, Scott Johnson and Co are naturally funny, Paul Boag is prone to bouts of British wittiness, Leo Laporte is a great mimic, and Adam Christianson... he turned out to be the most engaging podcaster of the lot today, for good, as well as debatable reasons!

We reviewed the Extra Life Radio podcast by cartoonist, Scott Johnson. Out of desperation for material on his own blog, he posted an excerpt & blew up our servers.

Scott Johnson is a podcasting cartoonist who hosts a round table of quick-witted, albeit laddish, cartoon and tech geeks. Once a week for a hundred and something weeks they have been running over everything from Wii's to toilet jokes, pooh to iPhones, and games to, by jingo, cartoons. It is compulsive, and at times, repulsive, but always engaging listening! And I say this as someone with zero interest in cartoons and games.
