Publications and Podcasts

I subscribe to 20+ podcasts, most which have more than 1 new episode a week. I find it really hard to listen to everything I want to, and now not having a long commute to work compounds this. I find it very difficult to listen to spoken audio whilst trying to concentrate on something else otherwise I could probably listen to much more than I do. Most of my podcast listening is via BeyondPod for Android due to it having the ability to auto download new episodes of shows. I always prioritise WOR about other audio due to it being time sensitive, but then I just listen to something that peaks my interest. For example, this week it was the SuperShow with Parv, Will…

Hey everyone. I just posted a new episode of my podcast, in which Steven Graham and I give our lists of the top 10 ECW matches. Apologies for the background hum while I'm talking.

Hopefully it's not too annoying. http://www.thecubsfan.com/2015/02/23/list-em-and-learn-episode-7-these-aint-no-holograms/ Direct download: http://thecubsfan.com/jvstw/List_Em_and_Learn_Episode_7.mp3
