Is there anybody else listening to the Pilotcast podcast? If so, do you
also have a problem with your podcast downloader re-downloading old episodes? If so, are you using iTunes or some other podcast downloader? It's the only podcast of the two dozen or so I subscribe to that has this problem, so I suspect they're doing something odd with the feed. -- Paul Tomblin http://blog.xcski.com/ "The way I see it, unless we each conform, unless we obey orders, unless we follow our leaders blindly, there is no possible way we can remain free." - John Ashcroft^W^WFrank Burns |

You mean from an audio engineering standpoint, the number of times they step on each other's talk, or just the amount of BS? -- Paul Tomblin http://blog.xcski.com/ Ahhh, the permie offer.

Paul,
or just the amount of BS? All, but most the latter. The Pilotcast is the prime example for me (as a professional journalist) why "citizen journalism" won't fly. IMHO, you have to be REALLY interested in flying or have a very long commute (like I do) to listen to that stuff. The amount of repetition, of mic hogging and of sometimes plain wrong facts is stunning. Only one of the guys is halfway professional in his demeanor (sp?) (you'll know who I mean). But then again, granted, it has entertainment value and they have their moments. And they deserve respect for the enormous effort. As John Dvorak put it: "Citizen journalism is like citizen professional baseball. Just because you like the Seattle Mariners doesn't mean you can play worth a damn." -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |
