To be honest, I don't at the moment but given they are becoming a lot more widespread and there is some really interesting content out there nowadays I think it is something I will start using very soon.

Not at the moment but the idea of being able to download a radio show, burn it to disc and listen in the car at a convenient time is fairly appealing.

You mean the Karl Pilkington Show, right?!

Honestly guys see what all the cult fuss is about here: www.rickygervais.com

I probably find this the funniest thing going at the moment

I subscribed to the Ricky Gervais Show since day 1, and I also subscribe to the Official Lost Podcast, Tiki Bar TV video Podcast and also the French Maid TV video podcast.

HI,

Don't own an iPod, but do download and keep some Podcasts on my PC, and if I get a set I really want to keep, just transfer them onto audio CD, for my own listening pleasure!

It wasn't that long ago I had never heard of podcasts not I am downloading dozens and listening at work and in the car.
I can't remember when anything had this sort of impact on my day in day out entertainment experience

Yep, I think the Chris Moyles podcast is so funny! Well deserving of the top spot in the charts!
