Discover Podcasts!

Recently I've had several knit peeps ask if I'd share my list of subscribed podcasts.  A few even asked if I'd keep a link list on the side bar of my blog.  While I am happy to share my list with all of you, I won't put it my side bar only because I'm constantly finding new podcasts, old podcasts are podfading, or some podcasts I only check in on occassionally depending on what's in the episode.  So really, the list is ever-evolving.

For those of you who don't listen to podcasts, you must, must give some a try!  Here's what I will tell you about my list: this is a list of podcasts I supremely enjoy.  This does not mean that there aren't others I don't enjoy.  This also does not mean that podcasts not on my list aren't terrific.  I only have so many hours in the day and so many days in the week to listen to podcasts - so I listen to or watch podcasts that fit my personality.  Like yarn and knitting notions, there is no good or bad, there is only what you prefer. :)

I find I listen to knitting podcasts that are primarily amateur podcasters rather than companies, although I do listen to a couple that are sponsored by companies.  I like listening to them for different reasons. Some of the podcasts are audio and I listen to them in the car, as I'm walking around the house performing chores, or taking a stroll.  Some are video, which are terrific to have going on my laptop while I'm cooking, folding laundry, or hauled up in my knitting chair. I find I prefer podcasts because they go where I do, are entertaining, and allow me to do chores while enjoying them!  Give them a try!  If you don't have an iPod/iPhone/iPad, no worries. You can listen to them via iTunes on your computer or from the podcaster's website on your computer!
