The Monitor

A list of the better podcasts and why.

Stephen Fry’s Podgrams

A new podcast by British actor and comedian Stephen Fry has so far covered everything from banter about his broken arm to in-depth quotes and analysis from Oscar Wilde about wallpaper and the American psyche. It’s a truly brilliant podcast and I hope he continues the series.

The Bugle

The Bugle is published by The Times Online and features funny men John Oliver (from The Daily Show) and Andy Zaltzman. I listened to it for the first time today during a Mother’s Day roadtrip. It was so funny, it almost became dangerous for driving. If you generally like British humor (who doesn’t?!) and you enjoy John Oliver on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, give this podcast a listen. Note that the topics covered and language used isn’t necessarily safe for work or young children.

Sesame Street Podcast

A new video podcast from Sesame Street brought to you by the letter “P” and “sunny days.”

The Itinerant Angler Podcast

Part of writer/photographer Zach Matthews’ website, each podcast offers a interview with well-known or expert fisherman from across the US and around the world.

Business English Podcast

This podcast is aimed at the business traveler looking for some extra help in English language skills. Published weekly, the Business English Podcast teaches idioms, useful phrases and other vocabulary that will help non-native speakers better communicate in an English-speaking business environment.

Podcasting just turned two years old and this weekend is the second annual Podcast and Portable Media Expo in Ontario, California. With that in mind, here are PFAs 10 Podcasting Movers and Shakers. This isn’t a Top 10 because there’s no ranking. These are people who are actively making the podcasting space more interesting, profitable and more accessible to a wider audience.

Got a podcast but have no idea how many people are listening? This is the million dollar question of podcasting. While there are simple ways to fairly reliably track the traffic for your website (Google Analytics, MeasureMap, Mint), recording and analyzing statistics for podcasting (audio files downloaded) is another beast entirely.
