Today, the Brian Leher show on WNYC began podcasting.  The subject of the first show was, uh, podcasting.  The guest, Paul Boutin, of Wired, gave an introduction to RSS and Podcasting (and there was some discussion as to how Apple might feel about the name PODCAST).

Speaking of which, look at this:
