Here is a review left by a listener of the show: 5 Stars

Biased, fun review of all things new in podcasting: Sure they’re old school, like ground floor old school. Sure they are biased towards their respective companies’ approach to podcasting. But they care about us. A lot. And it shows. I listen to keep up with the cutting edge of the industry and I listen to relax. It’s not a show for everyone, but I’m not “everyone” and I enjoy hearing from those who fight to improve our community. It’s fun to get to know some of the most passionate and influential people in the podcasting space as real people

In an exclusive first public interview Todd Cochrane @geeknews and Rob Greenlee @robgreenlee interview Zack Reneau-Weden @zackrw Google’s Podcasting App Product Manager to talk about Google’s new entry into the podcasting space, and ask him a series of question ranging from technical, to the vision Google has, to what’s next. This is an interview that every podcaster should listen to, that will give you insights on how you can best utilize the 8000-pound gorilla known Google to promote and grow your show.

It’s very obvious from this discussion that Google is very serious about building podcast audiences globally on the Android platform and you will start to understand the absolute power you will have by having your own .com when it comes to promoting and growing your show. This is a 100 min podcast full of very valuable information. Plus some interesting discussions about will podcasting have a place deeper in Google search.

Todd Cochrane of Blubrry and Rob Greenlee of Voxnest dig into the issue surrounding the podcast feed hijacking and mirroring of feeds that Castbox undertook to apparently swing Google search results to their site and the ramifications of this action. It’s time again for podcasters to protect the intellectual property of their highly valued RSS feed, and ensure that third parties do not hijack and or mirror them ever.

We have not seen any company do this in a long time but with the recent Google Podcast player this is likely to show up again as companies try to manipulate listeners onto their platforms versus their home sites.

Todd Cochrane and Rob Greenlee welcome James Cridland from PodNews.net to the show this week to talk podcasting and what is happening in the international scenes. Lots of ground covered here and some very good thought points on growing the industry and questions that we should be asking. He hammers home some of the same topics we have been raising on this show for a very long time. Plus reminds us of the common enemy we had at the beginning of the podcasting space. The question is who is that common enemy now.
