I tried the Educational Podcast directory first. It was an easy to browse directory and I immediately found this incredible podcast: "Who Said A Literature Game Delivered as a Podcast." It's great fun to listen to the passage and guess the character speaking, the novel, and the author. Each Podcast begins with the answer to the previous passage and a listing of participants who guessed correctly. I love it.....
I then tried Podcast.com. Browsing was a little confusing at first as I did not immediately understand the "Channels." I did find a directory in the lower right quadrant that I found easier to navigate, but was having a hard time finding an interesting (to me) topic to listen to. So I tried the search feature. Bingo! I tried PBS and got lots of interesting choices and then tried NPR and got more. NPR's Florida Stories podcast is great!
Podcastalley.com was easy to browse. I didn't find anything new and exciting, but that could be because its getting late and I'm tired. I went back and found some great podcasts here as well and still find the browsing and searching very intuitive.
However, I give up: I cannot figure out how to put the great podcasts i found onto this blog. So I will insert links to the podcast sites so you all can try them out from the podcast home pages. Sorry I can't get a click and go version inserted into my blog.
