Some changes to the podcast

A few small changes to the Portafilter Podcast...
  • Über-techno-geek podcasts have multiple file formats, and although I've always been a fan of Apple's AAC format, having two different formats has been a pain in the ass, so MP3 wins (for now). Starting with the next show, we'll be offering the MP3 format only.
  • Also, we're changing the XML feed for the podcast to: http://www.portafilter.org/podcast.xml We'll maintain the old feeds for a little while, but it would behoove you to move over to the new URL.
  • We're ALSO changing the RSS sitefeed URL to: http://www.portafilter.org/atom.xml. Point your RSS newsreader to the new URL please.
  • We will be reducing the length of the average podcast by about 30 seconds. You'll still be able to enjoy all of the banter, interviews, debates, and bullsh*t as usual, but now in a much more portable and reasonable size!

Hope these changes will help enhance your PF Podcast experience. Take care, and good day.

  2. Dig the podcast. First time, long time. While were on the topic of change... can anything be done about the levels? i.e. can you put little compression on the recording? I always find myself backing up and cranking it up to hear the quiet, quick wit and then get my ears f'in blown out with the inevitable explosion of laughter that follows. Don't get me wrong, the podcast is NIIIIIIICCCCCEE... keep up the good werk.

  3. Amen to that! I'm always listening with one hand on the volume knob.
