Anybody have links to decent podcasts? (music or talk) Did a few searches on podcast search engines but didn't get much.

design related stuff
Downtown Soulville with Mr. Finewine is my favorite music podcast right now. http://podcast.wfmu.org/
For Talk, I listen to "The Treatment" with Elvis Mitchell from KCRW, pretty interesting movie related interviews. http://www.kcrw.org/podcast/
Me and Nitekrawler(and soon Birdman)have done live sets that run on this webradio station outta DC:

Look for more info in the Announcements section soon!
Looks good, but what is the purpose of the XML file? I'm pretty ignorant about such things. The only podcasts I usually get are from iTunes.
Copy the link with the .xml extension http://www.waxingdeep.org/radio/waxingdeep.xml
then go into iTunes. In the "Advanced" menu, select "Subscribe to podcast"
then paste the link into the box that comes up
then you're rockin' Waxing Deep
Dan--You rule![/b] Thanks for the link, I will be enjoying your show on the choo-choo tonight!
The feed, or xml file is a document that the newsfeed reader or podcast catcher can read. It splits the info into categories and when it updates, your reader updates. It's automatic web browsing so to speak. Anyway, when there is a certain kind of file, like an mp3, you can have the software automatically download it and it will be waiting for you in your player or iPod, hence the name, "podcasting". So your app sits there and waits for the feed to update so you don't have to browse to the page, right-click, and all that waste of time stuff. It's seems kind of complicated, which is why what iTunes has done is real great. Apple had nothing to do with creating Podcasting BTW. Itunes makes the process of setting up more user friendly, but it's really not hard, just technical. Once you're set up you never have to worry about it. Kinda like TiVo for internet radio.
I am now subscribed to Waxing Deep. Great stuff, thanks.
THANK YOU.... I'm getting on a plane tommorrow and needed some new stuff for the earholes.
Tie one on at the Hilltop Pub on Tuesday night before you come come home.
