Podcasts....podcasts everywhere.....

[Maidstoned Eagle]

Why are podcasts like buses? Miss one and there's another one along in a minute, usually with 2 right behind that.

Though I do appreciate the hard work etc some people put into their efforts...could we just have a podcast thread, instead of loads of threads popping up.

We could call it the Podcast Discussion thread to fit in with the latest trend of "Discussion" named threads.

Or you could make a podcast review podcast and then post a thread about it?

I'd have to listen to them all then. I don't have time for all that, I have packed lunch to make.

You could avoid listening to them all by reading out aloud all the BBS comments on the podcasts by others like a Dave Gorman Found Poem?

Yes the recent proliferation of 'discussion' threads is a point worthy of discussion...although for convenience and to avoid such comments becoming dissipated and lost, I would suggest that a 'discussion threads discussion' thread would make a handy single point of reference.

As for the podcasts...ashamed to say I have never listened to a Palace one. Regarding podcasts in general though, I am old and I struggle to see the motivation for getting one started in the first place (assuming you are not already famous with an established following who will hang on your every word). It's the presumed 'I have something of value to say and I want everyone to hear it' stance which I struggle to get my head around. A similar thing is also now starting to proliferate on LinkedIn, where you see 'business leaders' publishing a couple of minutes video which is simply them as a taking head peddling their latest management theory. It's amazing how all of these are based on a personal true life story which can be used as an analogy for the leadership technique being discussed. 'I was walking down the High Street yesterday and there was a homeless man sitting outside Argos. Rather than walk by, I decided to stop and talk. He explained to me how he used to work in a Tupperware factory...' etc etc and so on and so forth.

Sounds like Arsenal TV for the terminally dull, although I admit Arsenal TV is Arsenal TV for the permanently dull already.

Isn't that what they already are?

A point worthy of discussion.

Yes, is very much a "MEMEME......YOU MUST LISTEN TO MEEEEEEEE!" attitude.

Everyone wants their 15 minutes...only now, due to "everyone" being an ever increasing number, this has been reduced to 30 seconds.

I have to admit, I'm a bit of a podcast evangelist, there's so many good ones around, but I'm struggling to keep up. The Guardian had a good article yesterday listing some ones to check out: To view the link you have to Register or Login

I must admit it's only recently that I realised there was more than one Palace podcast. I would just see that a thread was about a podcast and only occasionally clicked on them.

The only time I've listened to them is when Parish has shipped up and seeing as I don't really respect the guy's business capability any more I don't even listen to him now.

Perhaps podcast and fanzine advertising should have its own separate forum?

Yes, I do like good, professionally produced podcasts, where the contributors are taking a non-partisan view.

Even worse is making post where the poster says, 'I said the same thing on my Pod, the link is in my huge signature, please listen to my pod'

[PLEASE LISTEN

I’ve been discussing the antics of a bald androgynous child who marches purposefully towards the camera in my new bodcast if anyone gives a fvck

[CPFC.1990]

The poster sc whatever is frankly taking the piss with the bold red advertising.

[ForzaPalace]

They're all shit. Listened to one for the first time the other day and in 40 minutes of drivel I summarised that it's nothing you couldn't get off of here or Twitter in about 5 minutes.

It also sounds incredibly dull and pretentious - a critical thinking podcast - whatever the **** that means.

His signature seems to go in size in accordance with his desperation.

The casts are better than Arsenal TV and other similar wank programmes. You do them a disservice by comparing them.

If we ever have Palace TV, we will need to bury our heads in shame.
