I Lost My Podcast Virginity

by the Pirate on January 26, 2006

to Glenn and Dr. Helen, who were interviewing Norah Vincent, of Self-Made Man fame.

Vincent’s story is fascinating; I want to read this book immediately, though there are a few ahead of it in the reading queue.

The Glenn and Helen Show couldn’t be more homey; it’s without pretense, as the Instapundit blog is. I was surprised at Dr. Helen’s Southern accent, which was stupid of me. Dr. H, in particular, was extraordinarily down to earth: clearly, teaching has given Glenn an edge over some of us in speaking before (potentially) large groups.

My favorite line was Glenn’s signoff: “we’ll be back again when we feel like it.” Nice.

I read Dr. Helen’s post about this; it looks fascinating, but I’m with you. I have about seven feet of books waiting to be read (I measured – I’m a little weird sometimes).

Tease!!!!!!!
I hope you were present/participated when you lost your other “virginity”. I sat through an hour of dial-up hell waiting to hear your voice(I thought you were a guest interviewer)…I must stop assuming! At least with the “dead”links, I get instant non-gratification!

Oh, I’m sorry. It was a callback to my resisting LISTENING to these things, because I knew once I heard one, I’d want to start producing them.

And, of course, I do: but I have to think about it for a while and decide what format, etc.

You are so forgiven! What’s an hour here or there?

Remember your future political ambitions when you decide what to Podcast…Keep in mind that we can always blame Darlene for all the iffy posts…Or Dr. Myra Vanderhood…
