Around The Podosphere (ATP): March 20, 2007

Well, the Apple TV finally shipped. I guess I can save up a few more video podcasts to watch this weekend to test the new box out. Look for major Apple TV coverage this week and next.

Today, from my ipod to your eyes.
1. Doctor Who Podshock 70: The gang finds time to rev up for the new season of Doctor Who which starts on the 31st of this month. A very generous fan wants to auction off a figurine to help support the podcast. I think that this shows the level of dedication that fans of a show like this can have. Way to go!

2. Speaking of Beer 25: Charlie and an assorted cast of characters dissect Dogfish Head beers. This innovative Delaware brewery is turning out creative brews that are astounding beer lovers everywhere. Get your hands on some if you can. Charlie's wife was on hand for most of the show. I thought the two of them were excellent together in front of the mic. They should keep doing the podcast together.

3. TWIT 91: Leo takes TWIT LIVE on Talkshoe (the innovative way for podcasters to podcast before a live audience as well as take phone and Skype calls). The episode frankly SUCKED ASS. I think this was the worst TWIT in a year. The format, the guests, and the topics were all rotten. Now, a personal request to Leo. Never, never get Robert Scoble on your podcast ever again. He sucks all the life out of the room. He's like the unpopular kid that comes to the party and then is the most annoying person all night. Your format is spot on Leo. Just keep up with what works. You are the most popular podcast out there. This direction was not the way to go. I'm not against change, just try something different.
