podcasts are dumb and dumberer

I don’t understand the all the rage about podcasts. As far as I can tell, the selling point of podcasts is this: You get music on your ipod — like you already do — but someone else controls what you listen to and there’s stupid-ass DJ chatter between the tracks. And now Wired has an article about podcasters adding advertisements to their podcasts.

Pardon me if I think this is similar to getting a light saber, but it only works if you light it on fire… by repeatedly knocking two rocks together. And it doesn’t work when a cloud floats overhead. Who needs future technology when we can use past technology!

Psst, hey guys! YOU ARE DUMB!
