Following up on yesterday's post of my favorite webinar sites, today I am focusing on podcasts. Many of you know that I advocate the use of podcasts as an excellent means of short learning events. I've created a tutorial named "Drivetime Podcasts", and encourage the use of an FM Modulator (transmitter) which easily allows anyone to listen to podcasts in their car ... without the need to own a iPod or MP3 Player.
Take a look at my Drivetime Podcast multimedia tutorial. It's less than four minutes long, and in this case, a picture (or two) are worth a thousand words:
- Drivetime Podcast Tutorial
Note #1: module may take a moment to load
Note #2: maximize screen by clicking upon icon next to "paper clip"
Here are some of the content links referred to in the tutorial
- FM Modulator (about $25 US)
- RSS Overview from c|Net

Thanks for mentioning podcasts to your folks. In addition to these established brands, there is plenty of good work out there by people you may never have heard of including Manager Tools and my own Cranky Middle Manager Show.
Folks can find these by searching iTunes, podcast alley or podcasts.yahoo.com and searching Business or management.
I appreciate your mentioning the show I did with Harold Evans- you'll find other shows in the archives with folks like David Allen (Getting things done), David Maister and many others.
