[Swprograms] Podding Along - Issue 72



Most radio listening takes place in the car or while doing other things that allow freedom for the ear, but not the eyes and hands.  Podcasts permit a shift of listening time from a set appointment to virtually any convenient occasion.   
I do it while âpower walkingâ (most) every other day.  The âartâ of putting one foot in front of the other can be pretty monotonous and by âpodding alongâ while Iâm plodding along my mind gets something to do along with my body.  Some of the best radio comes from the public networks of the UK, Australia, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand and the U.S.  Apart from the originating programâs web site, most programs are made available through any number of other amalgamation sources such as iTunes and TuneIn. Hereâs another in a continuing series of small samplings:

The NDP's finance critic Guy Caron and the Conservatives' family critic Karen Vecchio weigh in on all things economy. Plus: Michael Chong talks his Conservative leadership bid, as well as fellow candidate Kellie Leitch's questionable survey out this week to supporters.
