Listener Comments

Paul:

About 2 weeks ago i discovered podcasting and as i like blues music, i found your "roadhouse" feeds.

It’s really a great pleasure to listen to such good music,
man !! Here in Switzerland no "regular" radio station broadcasts that
style of music.

Good narrative on KFMH 

Free-form programming that included lots of blues.

KAAY Link 

50,000 Watts, 1090 AM.

Clyde Clifford, classic radio, best experienced with a transistor radio under the pillow (same with KMOX and Cardinal baseball).

Michael:

I’m new to podcasting, maybe a month.  Somehow I stumbled across Roadhouse and
at first thought I wouldn’t like it.  My favorite music is ‘Acoustic,
Singer/Songwriter’ otherwise known as FOLK.  But I am slowly turning into a
Blues fan.  I’m loading my Gmini (no EyePod here) for a trip from the East
Coast to the Rockies later this summer.  Roadhouse should give me many hours
of something bright and new to listen to.  Keep up the good work.

p.s. it is nice to hear a podcast without 4-letter words.

Podcasting News

Debut of Adam Curry’s Podshow on Friday the 13th.

Wall Street Journal article on newspapers turning to podcasting.

Newspapers and magazines such as the Seattle
Post-Intelligencer, Philadelphia Daily News, Washington Post and Forbes
have started podcasts in recent weeks. Their programming varies widely.
Some simply summarize the day’s news, while others aim for more of a
radio-show feel with interviews of reporters and newsmakers. A few
provide clips from professionally recorded radio programs, but most of
the podcasts are low-budget, low-tech affairs hosted by print
journalists who often have scant broadcast experience.
