Listened to two great podcasts today while walking the dog (one even from Podshow, if you get my drift) and thought I'd let readers know how good they are.

Nicole Simon is one of the best interviewers online, in my opinion.  Her Bloxpert interviews are far too infrequent for me, only when she's headed to a tech conference.  But her interview with Doc Searls last month is very worth listening to.  Doc talks about everything from Attention vs. Intention and the changing patterns of innovation  to the relationship between 60's culture and today's web tech.  Very interesting, and I swear I'm not usually a huge Doc Searls fan.

Speaking of Doc Searls, he was absent from the most recent Gilmor Gang podcast.  So were my favorite contributors, Mike Arrington of Tech Crunch and Jon Udell of Infoworld.  Perhaps they aren't as essential as I'd grown to think, though, because the newest episode is particularly good.  The discussion of the Forrester report that 1% of connected households in the US report regularly listening to podcasts is the best part.  It starts at about 6:00 in and ends around the fifteen minute mark or so.  The whole thing is worth listening to, though, despite what the host may say.
