Content Overload Worsening

Podcasts. I now subscribe to 24. That's more than when I last mentioned it and wanted to drop a few.

One of my favourite (though recently less so) comedy shows is now going 5 days a week. I should be pleased but i'm not. My not quite OCD nature means I need to treat these shows as all or nothing. I can't bring myself to just listen to episodes when I feel I have the time, but I also can't imagine finding yet another 2 hours in a week to listen to the two extra shows. Maybe they'll do me a favour and put the new shows behind a pay wall.

Current favourite show - Red Bar Radio. This has been in fantastic form recently. Much better than the show that's about to go 5 days a week which has developed a weird obsession with describing YouTube videos that I can't see. They also seem to see themselves as implicitly superior to Red Bar, which may have been true at one time, but at this point it's misguided arrogance. I'm not sure these show wars really exist in the hosts minds most of the time but this was brought up briefly in the last few weeks and for some reason it annoyed me.

Don't bother with these types of show if you've ever been offended by anything though. Incidentally who are these idiots that get offended?

So yes, content overload. Too much audio and too many unread stories in Google Reader.

Today I posted three times and all three posts largely fell apart towards the middle. I haven't been doing this enough recently to be good it it I guess.
