I really don't know how I would survive without the downloading of podcasts. How did we ever manage to survive without these wonderful snippets of UK radio. Whether listening on the Train to Basel, whilst cycling in the gym, whilst cooking in the kitchen or just at my PC, they have become a perfect accompaniment to an Englishman in Switzerland. The reason they are so good is I've never time to listen to the radio when the actual progammes are on (the same reason the recording feature on Bluewin TV is used so much) so you just set up iTunes (no iPod required thank god) and subscribe to the podcasts of choice. It started with the obvious football ones like 606, 5live daily, Guardian Football Weekly, Arsecast and the truly wonderful Fighting Talk. Now it includes comedy shows from Radio 4, the return of Danny Baker & Danny Kelly along with cricket, Jonathan Ross and any other that I see recommended!
