Above is the RSS feed to the NPR website. This is a source my husband suggested that gave information about how long the podcasts were so you could gauge how much time you needed to listen to them. I didn't really care for the other podcast directories listed in the exercise.
I chose to listen to "The New Batch of Under-the-Radar Books" from Nancy Pearl. She book talked a children's book I will definitely check out for a spring pajama storytime called "Gimme Cracked Corn and I Will Share". She said the book makes a wonderful read-aloud, enjoyable for adults as well as kids. And, how about this, Pearl book talked Bob Tarte's new book "Fowl Weather"-Alto's hometown author!
I also listened to a podcast on must see films at the Sundance Film Festival-will check out one they suggested "Frozen River"-two women smuggling people into Canada.
Podcasts are a great information source for those who better process information that is audio in nature.
