We went ahead and bought and ipod, I used some of my baby-wearing money for it, and K helped me pick one out. I am reading Podcasting Solustions, and waiting for the microphone I ordered to begin shipping.
In the meantime, here are a couple of podcasts I have found fun. You can download and listen on your computer regardless of whether you have an ipod or other MP3 player.....
http://www.storynory.com - a podcast with a new fairy tale every week or so. Hans Christian Anderson style fare. Told with by a Brit actor with a Brit accent- somehow mkaing it more fun!
http://www.doctorfloyd.com/ - a podcast with history and time travel and evil villains attempting to sell historical artifacts on ebay.....
http://www.podictionary.com/ - a word a day, interesting etymology....
http://www.spoonfulofrussian.com - we learned how to say hello for when we call Uncle Justin!
http://www.mpsomaha.org/willow/index.html - we listened to a podcast or two from the 1st and 2nd graders....
I am getting more great podcasts from itunes and Podcast Alley.
