Podcasting

A podcast is a new way to distribute audio. Without getting too terribly geeky, a podcast is an RSS feed with an audio file attached (usually an MP3). The audio files can easily be synched to your MP3 player (even though its name suggests it, an iPod is not neccesary to listen to a Podcast!) or kept on your computer to be listened to at your convenience. Read more about podcasting at Wikipedia.

The following is a list of podcasts from shows that air on New Hampshire Public Radio. We will add to the list as it grows.
