Podcast Malfunction

As silly as it may sound, I spend quite a bit of time listening to podcast. I guess it started a few years ago when I was doing a lot of traveling. Long hours on planes or in cars made me realise you can only listen to music for so long.


One of the first really good interview style podcast I found was Issue Oriented.
ISSUE ORIENTED is a podcast and website for thoughtful people with good taste in music. From across punk, hardcore, indie, metal and beyond, host Ronen Kauffman invites some of the culture industry’s most compelling personalities to have meaningful discussions on real topics. Unlike most podcasts, ISSUE ORIENTED is neither boring nor a waste of your time.

It's been put on hold for a few years but the old interviews are still great to listen too. They feature some of my personal favorite bands and people. H2O, SOIA, John Joesph, Chamberlain and Others.



A new found station of podcasts getting heavy rotation on my iphone is Mountain Bike Radio.
Mountain Bike Radio is THE voice of mountain biking. Mountain Bike Radio is a network of mountain biking podcasts and online radio shows, based at the edge of the Colorado Rocky Mountain Foothills, that is the place for all mountain bike talk. We discuss racing, current events, and anything in the mountain biking world. From the average joe to the top pro and from short track to multiday adventures, we aim to bring the world of mountain biking to you. It's mountain bike talk from mountain bikers, for mountain bikers.
  
I must admit my favorite show on the station has to be 'Just Ridding Along' 
As a former bike shop wrench I can fully appreciate the strong opinions and snarky comments they tend to make. It's just a few good friends answering questions from tuning shocks to the 'fat bike' trend. If it doesn't make you smile or laugh. Maybe you just don't get what being an angry bike shop wrench is all about.

with programs on racing and training to nutrition and fat bikes the offer something for everyone. Heck you might even learn a thing or two.


How can you not like a 'pop' cover of a Cro-Mags classic
