Where are all the podcasts?
Submitted by admin on Tue, 02/16/2010 - 12:12I've had several people ask this question, which makes it a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) and I'd better answer it!
Here is the link: http://99hobbies.blogspot.com/
A lot of you pick up the podcasts overnight via syndication at the Apple store, or other places that provide this kind of thing. But if you would like to listen on your computer, and "right now", you can visit blogspot and pick the story you want to listen to.
If you have any trouble accessing any of those, please let me know!

I found myself sitting there enjoying myself!
That is what the hobby, and hobbies in general, are all about, I think: doing something that you want to do, instead of doing something that you have to do.
