Review #33: The Best Radio you Never Heard

Bruce C — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 15:07:14 +0000

I like listening to an eclectic mix of music from Rock, Pop, New Wave, Alternative, and Punk Rock. Makes me feel pretty young again. Nothing gets any more eclectic than The Best Radio You Never Heard. Before you go listening to this podcast, check out my review of it.

Review of Podcasts Live Show #2

Bruce C — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 12:54:58 +0000

Well, it looks like the live podcast reviews are a success and I have decided to do this every single Wednesday night at 10:00 PM Eastern Standard Time.

For tonight’s podcast reviews, I reviewed Music Sumo Podcast, Brazilianisms from Tvindy, Short Cummings Radio, The Family Edifice Home Improvement Video Podcast, Road Show Podcast, Outsight Radio Hour, and Technogab.

I have more LIVE podcast reviews coming, Wednesday, February 20th. See you then.

You can review all the live broadcasts recorded at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/review-of-podcasts-live

Don’t forget to leave YOUR review.

Review of Podcasts Goes LIVE!

Bruce C — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 07:33:39 +0000

I now started a reviewing podcasts live. Now, instead of pre-recording my reviews, I have taken a room at Ustream and have a full room of podcasters with a chat room and usually review about 5 to 10 podcasts every single night.

I figured while I am at it, let’s also voice my complaints about podcasts in general and ways to improve your podcast. One of them is that most podcast subscribers don’t want to listen for more than 20 minutes, although most podcasters have over 60 minute shows. Most people just don’t watch, let along download all that data onto their PCs, as these longer podcasts take longer to stream before the first second of audio video content is even rendered by the computer.

It was really fun. Check it out.

Review #30: Worlds of Wayne

Bruce C — Mon, 31 Dec 2007 16:59:51 +0000

In this podcast, we review Worlds of Wayne

http://media.switchpod.com//users/reviewofpodcasts/pwwWorldsOfWayne.mp3

Worlds of Wayne is sometimes funny, sometimes serious, and sometimes outrageous. We also review his Christmas Special which is a 2007 story with an old school format. Very cool.

Review 29 – Podcast Ping – Poetry Accentuated by Podsafe Music

Bruce C — Sat, 22 Dec 2007 19:58:23 +0000

I was listening to Solumn Soltice and Winter Words, two podcasts that are right up there with the current times (the holidays in this case). Good job.

This podcast has an average frequency of one episode per week.

Review #28 (Written) – Davis On Draft

Bruce C — Fri, 21 Sep 2007 16:42:36 +0000

Davis on Draft is THE beercast. Listening to Justin and his lovelyyyy assistant, I learned a lot about the beer industry. What’s cool is that they give beer news on beer manufacturers such as Anheiser Busch, etc, new products, events, and all things beer including dark beers from ales from around the world.

I listened to the episode called Justin’s Favorite Beers and actually went into a bar asking for one of them.

If you are a beer drinker, then this definitely is the podcast for you. Go to http://www.hotwebideas.com/gc/directory.php?op=details&u=davisondraft and have a listen.

Review #28 (Written Review) – Lunatic Radio

Bruce C — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 16:33:20 +0000

These guys are totally nuts! That’s a good thing, folks. If you like total craziness on a podcast with 4 guys and some women, listen to Lunatic Radio.(http://www.hotwebideas.com/gc/directory.php?op=details&u=lunaticradio)

This is a comedy podcast and the hosts of L.R. pick on each other, tell jokes, drink beer, and have live shows. I listen to this podcast in my car and it helps me laugh when I am stuck in traffic. I think the guys from Lunatic Radio podcast for people like me who hate other drivers on the road, because if you have road rage, you will soon find out that the guys from Lunatic Radio do too. They pick on everything from cops to sports to current events and sometimes politicians.

Check em out folks!

Review #27: (Written) – The Scott and Pam Indie Alternative Rock Metal Radio Show

Bruce C — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 17:13:06 +0000

Yes, we just started adding written reviews since sometimes I get backlogged podcasting, but the podcast reviews must go on!

I review Scott and Pam because I am a metalhead. As some of you know I am a smooth jazz sax player who has topped the MP3.com charts in the past, I am still into alt and heavy metal.

So, I was excited when Scott and Pam joined PodcasterWhosWho.com – Listening to their podcast as like any other music podcast, except only obviously metal. They start off the show with a song, usually the best song of the podcast, but all unknown talented groups who would make any metalhead proud.

Since they like metal, they never seem bored of or burnt out podcasting and that’s obviously important, but I do hear a lot of podcasters burnt out on their own shows.

Through this podcast, I learn about new groups that I probably would never hear of. So, it’s always refreshing to hear something different other than Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Linkin Park, or Shinedown.

The show is also funny where this couple throws in jokes of sexual innuendos and current events.

Good job, Scott and Pam. As Pam said to me in her last email: Right on!

Podcast Review #26: American Talk USA

Bruce C — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 03:09:22 +0000

Listening to Joe and Brenda talk about travelling, music, and nutrition, I thought this was a good, well done podcast. I especially liked what Brenda had to say about antioxidants.

Listen to my review of American Talk USA podcast.

Review #26 (Written) – Startup Bizcast with Steve Mullen

Bruce C — Thu, 23 Aug 2007 16:39:26 +0000

Every new business, small and large can use tips when they open their doors for the first time. So, I had to listen to a few episodes of Startup Bizcast before reviewing this podcast. Steve gets right down to the answers in a very short podcast. After listening to episode 11 about search engine optimization, I immediately had some strategies for Google and Yahoo which I never knew such as updating your content, blogging (pardon the pun), and more. I don’t want to tell you all of the tips because I do not want to spoil the podcast for you, but if you need better search engine rankings, listen to this episode.

Steve does

Podcast Review #25: Digital Father

Bruce C — Thu, 23 Aug 2007 03:06:33 +0000

If you are a dad and want to hear some cool inspiration, listen to my review of Digital Father Podcast.

Podcast Review #24 – Good Home Cooking

Bruce C — Thu, 16 Aug 2007 03:06:20 +0000

My mouth actually started watering listening to the recipe Viv was podcasting. This is a podcast I definitely subscribed to because I love to cook and it has cool recipes.

Listen to my review of Good Home Cooking.

Reaching For Lucidity – Show 316 Indie and Alt Punk / Quick Jabs

Bruce C — Fri, 11 May 2007 02:15:14 +0000

Reaching for Lucidity hosted by Eban Crawford and Senator Jezz is a great podcast. They combine great music, news, current events, and some downright studio humor. I reviewed their last 3 shows combined at http://media.switchpod.com/users/reviewofpodcasts/pwwlucidity.mp3

Have a listen to the review.

Fighting Back Podcast with Steve Mullen

Bruce C — Fri, 04 May 2007 02:12:02 +0000

The Fight Back Podcast is a collection of inspirational stories about people fighting serious or incurable diseases. It is clear to me that Steve knows his content is indeed involved with the resolution or coping of those diseases themselves.

My review of Fighting Back Podcast tells you why you should listen to this podcast even if you do not know anyone who is fighting a disease.

You can listen here.

Public Nuisance Radio, Show #35

Bruce C — Wed, 02 May 2007 01:23:42 +0000

Public Nuisance Radio is a very funny podcast that talks about true stories about sex. Mikey from Public Nuisance Radio says you cannot listen to this at work, but it is not half as raunchy as some of the podcasts I have heard. His main sections are Stupid Sex, Believe It Or Not, and Mikey’s Bizarre Sex Act.

Listen to my review of Public Nuisance Radio by clicking here.

Truth Seekers Show 27

Bruce C — Tue, 01 May 2007 23:33:10 +0000

We review the Truth Seekers with Dani Cutler. The Truth Seekers give you the latest current events, sexcapades, and politics and it is apparent that Dani does her homework whether she is interviewing others or giving her views of the latest trash from the world’s most important politicians.

The Master Bad Show’s Tenthennial Tenthaversary Bonanza

Bruce C — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 15:21:05 +0000

Josh Miller is a definitely a hard working podcaster and it is apparent that he finds sound clips from all over the web including video games, Beastie Boys songs and more. This is a really funny show.

Get the highlights of Josh Miller’s The Master Bad show from my review by clicking here.

Review of Confessions of a DJ with DJ Jeff

Bruce C — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 14:54:43 +0000

DJ Jeff confesses his favorite music to you, which is obviously rock and alternative, but you never know what else he will throw into the mix in the future.

This is my first review with my daughter and we stripped out thebackground music and it was just me and her. That’s Pink Princess from the Roadkill and Pink Princess podcast.

Check out my review of Confessions of a DJ with DJ Jeff.

Review of Night Guy with Guy David

Bruce C — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 14:36:41 +0000

Guy David has three podcasts that I am aware of. The Night Guy podcast is a music show and the first that I know of from Israel. Guy David’s podcast promotion strategies are excellent, because of I have not heard of any others out of Israel.

As for my review of the show, you just have to listen here.

Review of Damon & Klitts’ Two Cents

Bruce C — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 14:24:01 +0000

Damon and Klitt’s Two Cents is an opinion based podcast on the most up to date news and current events. Every Friday, they put up a new podcast and it reflects their opinion with comedy, sarcasm, and truth. Listen to my review of Damon & Klitts’ Two Cents at

Bucket Blast

Bruce C — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 11:42:18 +0000

Bucket is a funny podcast starring Jen and Corey. Bucket Blast is a special show from the Bucket podcast series where they infuse music into comedy and talk about everything having to do with what’s going on at that moment, but the music reflects the situations as well. I am also an alternative metal fan. So, I like their music as well.

Check out my review of Bucket.

Short Cummings Audio #’s 44 and 45

Bruce C — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 01:38:18 +0000

I will restate this from my podcast. Kevin Cummings in a very insightful man. I review Show #44 (Return to Romance) and Show #45 (Relationship Repair, the Emeril Way) which talks about creative ways men can be romantic using cooking as a basis. I also listened to Show 43, Cell Phone Zombies.

When you listen to Short Cummings Audio, you will truly be hooked by Kevin’s intellect and insight.

Check out my review of Short Cummings Audio right here.

Tvindy Time

Bruce C — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 10:33:56 +0000

Tvindy Time, owned, produced, and operated by Kinsey is an interesting podcast interviewing people who have travelled the world, who get mistaken for famous people, and more.

Kinsey is a great interviewer and you will hear that when you listen to my review. Click here to get my review of Tvindy Time.

Planet Retcon or just PRC

Bruce C — Sat, 21 Apr 2007 22:05:05 +0000

Planet Retcon is about science fiction with a little comedy. I was listening to excerpts of Log of the Crimson Lien. For you science fiction fans, my review of PRC should pretty much lure you in, remove the gravity from under your feet, and have you swimming with the atoms in innerspace as your little ionized spaceship smashes into the Earth, or at least a grain of sand on the Earth, causing no damage, destruction, or nuclear winters.

Missionary Talks

Bruce C — Sat, 21 Apr 2007 16:58:38 +0000

Although I am not a missionary, I learned a lot listening to David Peach and his interviews with the missionaries who has served communities in Peru. David is also funny and has support on his podcast. Listen to my review of Missionary Talks.

Kids Wife Work Life Show 43

Bruce C — Sat, 21 Apr 2007 16:57:05 +0000

This is a very well produced podcast. Chris and Mike are great together. The podcast has everything from humor, voice mails, email reads, and serious life lessons. My review of Chris and Mike shares some of the highlights I found of Show 43.

Listen to my review of Kids Wife Work Life Show 43

Barely Podcasting Show 59

Bruce C — Sat, 21 Apr 2007 16:23:28 +0000

Barely is the host and the madman behind the podcast. He told me not to review show 60 since it is all voice mails, but there is something funny about an all-voicemail podcast. Cool. So listen! Show 59 features barely’s adventures while he was sick at a mechanic, this “weed factory”, and how his doctor hold him that he needs to lose weight even when that was not why he went in.

Barely is a constant laugher and this podcast is one of those podcasts where you just don’t tune out.

The Wonderful World of Danny

Bruce C — Wed, 18 Apr 2007 03:39:13 +0000

I call The Wonderful World of Danny the underground comedy podcast after listening. It is one of those subliminal comedy podcasts. The Wonderful World of Danny takes us deep into the psychies of the most powerful man in podcasting. Listen to my review for a quick explanation of why you comics out there trying to break into comedycasting should listen to and subscribe to the podcast of the most powerful man in podcasting!
