I’ve realised today why podcasts are absolutely fantastic… They give me the opportunity to know everything before Colin. Occasionally he even incorrectly corrects me which is even more delicious. Then I know exactly where to find my corroborating evidence and 1 point to me, zero points to Colin…
Typical conversation now goes:
C – apple have a hifi for their Ipod now
M – I know, I heard about it on the Geeks of Hazzard last month – apparently its crap.
C – annoyed noises because I outgeeked him.
I was also recently right about what web 2.0 was. Lots of fun watching his face when he saw several websites agreeing with what I was saying.
So three cheers for podcasts and way they make me effortlessly knowledgeable about current affairs in the tech world.
