Customer Reviews
Great Podcast - Bad Subscription Function
This is a great podcast, but is not worth the hassle. You have to subscribe to both the video and the audio-only. That means that the audio-only needlessly clutters iTunes and it takes too much time time to have to constantly delete it so I can just watch the videos on my iPod.
