A few of my favourite podcasts recently came out with episodes that I quite enjoyed.
This American Life's Switcheroo episode had a particularly engaging story about a new form of outsourced journalism. Despite the fact that I've listened to the episode and also read a few follow-up stories on the profiled company I still don't know exactly how I should feel about the practice of outsourced context-free reporting. Anyway, I'm definitely glad to know that this kind of thing is going on and that we're now talking about it a bit more than we were a few days ago.
Radiolab's remix contest episode was also pretty fun (though in a very different way than their content usually is). The contest's winning entry really worked for me and reminded me of the great Idea's episode by Adam Goddard More About Henry (available here as an episode of Living Out Loud).
I write such posts because I realize I am the internet's #1 source of audio content reviews. If it weren't for these occasionally posted reviews this place would surely be a ghost town.
Or maybe you're actually coming here for the great Leacockian flourishes?
