Podcasters

Lately I have been getting into watching or listening to podcasts on iTunes. I mainly listen to the comedy ones or political podcasts. My favorite podcast is "the show with Ze Frank." This video podcast is really entertaining using various types of humor. Sometimes it will be funny just because he says something awkward or strange. Other times he pokes fun at politics. If I tried to explain a few of the scenarios they would not be nearly as funny as watching them. Another comedy podcast I enjoy is The Onion Radio News. Prior to subscribing to the podcast I had read a book with a bunch of Onion articles. These are usually about a minute or less long so they do not get very deep. They usually just skim the surface of a topic by reporting about a similar situation but in a very strange context. Most recently there was one titled "Nation's Substitute Teachers Would Like To Know Who Threw That." And it is basically a joke about some association of substitute teacher getting angry in a similar fashion to how they would get angry in the classroom situation.
The other podcast I listen to is very interesting to listen to. When I am done listening to the comedy podcasts for the day I might listen to the conservative radio host Dennis Prager. My reasoning for why, and my reaction to listening to it will take up another post so I will write about it later. By the way, I am fairly liberal so listening to conservatives is difficult sometimes.
