I hate the internet!

Is there somebody on my flist who deals with podcasts? (I suspect Clay does, actually...) I'm trying to find out if there's a way I can listen to stuff like the VaudCast or This American Life/Wait Wait Don't Tell Me/Car Talk from NPR on my mp3 player, and my head is full of snot and I'm feeling really stupid and worse to worst on my day off I'll plug the Rio into the desktop and tinker and see if I can make the IntarWeb serve my bidding.
I'm a fucking child of the digital age. This should not be such a hassle.

Yeah, I've got a Rio. (: I looked at the $80 price tag and held it up next to the $300 on an iPod and said 'I guess Apple just priced themselves out of my market *again*.' Plus I was leery of the whole m4a thing and iTunes and iLife and seamless despotism taking over my computer.

Agreed. I've been wanting to replace my Rio because it's ancient, and our school offers a great deal on iPods, but... yeah. Spendy suckers, and I hate iTunes. So I and my dinosaur of an mp3 player are pretty happy, still. ;)
