I’ve decided to get serious about my consumption of podcasts. I gave up TV all together just after the Super Bowl (in February 2009) and I’ve gotten most of my information through blogs via RSS feeds and links from good people I’m following on Twitter.

While I love getting information this way, it limits me in a couple of ways. I can’t do this stuff easily while walking around or exercising (and I really need to start exercising). And I can’t do it easily while in the car (and I spend more than an hour a day in my car).

This weekend, I fixed my car stereo auxiliary cord (actually, the guys at Car Toys did) and I bought and installed a windshield mount iPhone holder (WindowSeat by Griffin). I’ve tested it out and it works very well.

Now I have to get a pair of excellent iPhone earbuds that I can stand to have in my ears for an hour or two at a time. The goal is to be able to take a long walk with my dog while listening to Leo Laporte’s two-hour “The Tech Guy” podcast.

Maybe once I can commit to a regular long walk, I can start the “Couch to 5K” program iPhone app that I’ve heard so many good things about.

Anyway, if you have any suggestions for good podcasts (I’m looking at you Matt Whiting and Jeremy Meyers), please let me know in the comments.
